Everyone's dying of something It's madness to think that we're not But it's just a ride none of us will survive So make the most of the time you have got Everyone's dying of something Few have their eye on the prize We're all the same, yeah we all play this game None of us will escape with our lives Everyone's dying of something The only certain thing that I know You can plead, you can shout, you can try and hold out But one day we all have to go Oh everyone's dying of something You can pretend it's not true As sure as night follows day There is no escape That old reaper is coming for you Everyone's dying of something Not many know how to live Let go of that grudge, show some neighbourly love Try to forget and forgive Everyone's dying of something Life has a limited span We're here for a good time Not for a long time So live life as hard as you can Everyone's dying of something Others have it better than some But it's how you live, with what life gives That determines your place in the sun Everyone's dying of something Some folk aren't taken to see We see their light in the stars out at night And they're facing the man on the moon Everyone's dying of something It's madness to think that we're not It's just a ride, none of us will survive Make the most of the time you have got END
