Life |
Life is a story don’t you doubt |
Bad times give you something to talk about |
The next time you feel you’re all worn out |
Remember life is a story |
Don’t you doubt |
It only takes a day for everything to turn around |
Love is a story they tell to you |
But the way they tell it ain’t quite true |
You’ll wake up one day and you’re twenty-two |
You know love is just a story that they tell to you |
Love takes a lot of work like everything else you’re Gonna do |
Friends are just the people that you can talk with |
Somebody to talk about that somebody to talk About this |
But everyone changes and forever is a myth |
Friends are just the people that you can talk with |
A lot of them’ll leave but only a few you’re gonna Miss |
School is the place where I did my growing |
They fill your brain to overflowing |
They tell you this is all stuff you need to be knowing |
School is the place where I did my growing |
Just when I got to like it it was time to be going |
The world is the place where it all happens |
They draw lines on it and call it a map |
In between every line’s a different flag flapping |
The world is the place where it all happens |
Six billion people all taking turns eating in a napkin |
Animals are critters just like you and me |
The only difference is that they don’t worry |
About things that they can’t smell or see |
Animals are critters just like you and me |
So we buy pants and deodorants and claim not to be |
Songs are just something to waste your time |
I listen to yours and you listen to mine |
Before we know it the day’s gone by |
Songs are just something to waste your time |
So is everything else to do whatever makes you feel Fine |
God’s just a story someone made up long ago |
Before they had books and tv shows |
I don’t believe in him and I ain’t afraid to say so |
You know god’s just a story someone made up long Ago |
But it’s hard not to be superstitious despite all you Know |
Everyone’s born and everyone dies |
Everyone has a time and wonders why |
The ocean’s blue so is the sky |
Everyone’s born and everyone dies |
The old lady cries, the new baby cries… and sighs |
Kisses are weird but they can be fun |
Instead of shaking hands it’s like shaking tongues |
I wish I got to do it more when I was young |
Kisses are weird but they can be fun |
I hate going once a month without kissing anyone |
At this point it’s been since uh… how many months |
I think if kissing someone could make them Pregnant |
The last person I kissed would have had their kid by Now |
Dreams are weird but they can be fun too |
They happen more often than kisses it’s true |
In some I was naked and in some I flew |
Dreams are weird but they can be fun too |
I wonder if you’re dreaming about me when I’m Dreaming about you |
Now that you heard everything I said |
There ain’t nothing new inside your head |
If you want, disregard it all go ahead |
Now that you’ve heard everything I said |
There are probably one or two things you coulda Been doing instead |
Life is a story don’t you doubt |
Bad times give you something to talk about |
The next time you feel you’re all worn out |
Remember life is a story |
Don’t you doubt |
It only takes a day for everything to turn around |
