| Me and my best friends cruising down West End Street
|
| Hiding from cops and driving circles around the block all week
|
| All of my friends died out on West End Street
|
| They say we’re born to die young
|
| But we’re just trying to live in peace
|
| So maybe heaven is a ghetto with no bad blocks
|
| Shangri-La dealers at the bus stops
|
| And maybe God is just a cop that we can fast talk
|
| So if you’re guilty and you know it, put your hands up
|
| 'Cause karma’s just a different word for bad luck
|
| And what if death is just another pair of handcuffs?
|
| Then we’d better run
|
| Then we’d better run
|
| All of our friends went crazy on LSD
|
| Sailing their cars through the big bright city streets
|
| And everyone who knows our name
|
| Says that we ain’t ever gonna change
|
| They say we’re born to die young
|
| But we’re trying to find a better way
|
| They say we’re born to die young

|

|
| Then we’d better run
|
| Then we’d better run
|
| Word up?
|
| Hey, what’s up, man?
|
| Just sitting around and I’m gonna be 32 years old tomorrow
|
| And I feel half completely alive and half completely dead
|
| We hope and we pray day after day
|
| They say we’re born to die young
|
| But we’re gonna find a better way
|
| We hope and we pray day after day
