Short Life |
| In the scheme of things |
| You live your life |
| And fight to get what you want |
| And if you just give in |
| You soon give out |
| 'Cause happiness is what counts |
| Watch out for the best friend |
| Who tells you what to do |
| Beware of the leader |
| Who lives by his own rules |
| Watch out for the big mouth |
| Who always thinks he’s right |
| Turn off all the bad stuff |
| 'Cause it’s a short life |
| A short life, yeah |
| A short life, hey, hey |
| Who’s to say, what the perfect person should be? |
| And what’s it matter |
| When everyone in the world has different dreams? |
| Some people know |
| Life is so precious |
| Some just say «oh» |
| And miss the message |
| Really is a short life (such a short life) |
| Better start to live right |
| 'Cause it’s a short life, yeah |
| It’s a short life |
| You know in the end |
| It’s you alone |
| To do, what you need to do |
| And if you don’t think |
| You’re worth a damn |
| Then no one else will come through |
| Watch out for the gossips |
| Who start wars with their lips |
| Beware of the cute ones |
| Whose brains are in their hips |
| Watch out for the bully |
| Who wins you with his might |
| Cut 'em loose baby |
| 'Cause it’s a short life |
| A short life, yeah |
| A short life, oh, hey |
| Who’s to say, what the perfect existence should be? |
| And what’s it matter |
| When everyone in the world has different dreams? |
| Some people know |
| Life is so precious |
| Some just say «oh» |
| And miss the message |
| Really is a short life |
| Better start to live right |
| 'Cause it’s a short life, yeah |
| It’s a short life, oh hey |
| Hey, hey yeah |
| Woo-hoo |
| Who’s to say, what the perfect person should be? |
| And what’s it matter |
| When all people grow up having different dreams? |
| Some people know |
| Life is so precious |
| Some just say «oh» |
| And miss the message |
| That it’s a short life (baby, it’s a short life) |
| Such a short life (baby, it’s a short life) |
| A short life (baby, it’s a short life) |
| A short life (baby, it’s a short life) |
| Short life (baby, it’s a short life) |
| Don’t let it press you down (baby, it’s a short life) |
| You better get it right (baby, it’s a short life) |
| You better wake up and get it right, people (baby, it’s a short life) |
| A short life (baby, it’s a short life) |
| You only get a round once (baby, it’s a short life) |
| Hey, you better get it right (baby, it’s a short life) |
| A short life (baby, it’s a short life) |
