Lyrics: It’s All Been Done
Album: Greatest Hits: 1991-2001
Artist: Barenaked Ladies
 

I met you before the fall of Rome
and I begged you to let me take you home

You were wrong, I was right
You said goodbye, I said goodnight

It’s all been done
It’s all been done
It’s all been done before

I knew you before the west was won
and I heard you say the past
was much more fun
You go your way, I go mine
but I’ll see you next time

It’s all been done
It’s all been done
It’s all been done before

And if I put my fingers here, and if I say
“I love you, dear”
And if I play the same three chords,
Will you just yawn and say

It’s all been done
It’s all been done
It’s all been done before

Alone and bored on a 30th century night.
Will I see you on the price is right?
Will I cry? Will I smile?
As you run down the aisle.

It’s all been done
It’s all been done
It’s all been done before
