"What Have You Been Doing Lately?" lyrics

"What Have You Been Doing Lately?"

What have you been doing lately?
Your life could use improving greatly
I just wanted to know what's going on
But everything that goes is going wrong

What have you been doing lately?
Your life could use improving greatly
I'm just wanting to know what's going on
But everything that goes is going wrong

When I saw Justin he said he was just in, visiting on spring break
I said, "What a surprise
You're one of those guys I haven't seen since 1998."
We talked for a while
And I tried to smile as he told me about his college life
He parties Fridays through Thursdays
But not for birthdays, he's acquired a taste for Miller Lite

Pardon me while I throw up
I guess some people never grow up
What happened to the salvation you claimed?
It breaks my heart to see how much you've changed
Whoa, it breaks my heart to see how much you've changed

What have you been doing lately? (Lately!)
Your life could use improving greatly (Greatly!)
I just wanted to know what's going on
But everything that goes is going wrong

What have you been doing lately? (Lately!)
Your life could use improving greatly (Greatly!)
I'm just wanting to know what's going on
But everything that goes is going wrong

And then there's Vanessa, her life got so messed up
She just can't get along
Her emotions they can't cope 'cause she's lost all hope
She can't see right from wrong
Rationality left her, or shrunk with her sweater
She's a fanatic
She's over the edge, she needs Lemon Pledge
To clear those cobwebs from her attic

Pardon me while I throw up
I guess some people never grow up
What happened to the salvation you claimed?
It breaks my heart to see how much you've changed
Whoa, it breaks my heart to see how much you've changed

Whoa, what have you been doing lately? (Lately!)
Your life could use improving greatly (Greatly!)
I just wanted to know what's going on
But everything that goes is going wrong

What have you been doing lately? (Lately!)
Your life could use improving greatly (Greatly!)
I just wanted to know what's going on
But everything that goes is going wrong, yeah
