Lyrics As It Happens - Lowlife

As It Happens

The wrong people go with jealousy and joy
And I will need to seek and destroy
To take from my hide my stars to take
And jealous of riches, and life’s full of riches
And any of us can be affected by murder
Where the world dies through the hunger
But it goes on, and all around you
Forsaken and cruel, but it happens to be true
Then why should I feel the need to kill?
To take his life, and I will take his wife
But such is life, the way of the world
Revenge is sweet, we won’t take defeat
The things hard to grasp, the things from the past
To have and to hold what’s icy and cold
And lead us toward to wanting no more
And even if it is behind closed doors
The wrong people go with jealousy and joy
And I will need to seek and destroy
To take from my hide my stars to take
And jealous of riches, and life’s full of riches
And any of us can be affected by murder
Where the world dies through the hunger
But it goes on, and all around you
Forsaken and cruel, but it happens to be true
