Every Thing's Not What It Seems

Selena Gomez · Other Songs - Selena Gomez

Well you know every thing's gonna be a breeze

that the end will no doubt justify the means

You could fix any problem at the slightest ease

Yes, please...



Well you might find out it'll go to your head

When you write a report on a book you never read

With the snap of your fingers you can make your bed

That's what I said



Everything is not what it seems

When you can get all you wanted in your wildest dreams

You might run into trouble if you go to extremes

Because everything is not what it seems



Everything is not what it seems

When you can get what you want by the simplest of means

Be careful not to mess with the balance of things

Because everything is not what it seems
