This song has been popping in and out of my head for at least a week now. And every time it does, I get the urge to start singing the chorus very loudly. Then I realize that a) I'll get a lot of funny looks and b) people might get the wrong impression even though I'd be doing it with a smile on my face. It's a pretty song. And kids, don't forget that if you love somebody, set them on fire.
I ran into a friend of mine
said was gonna take some words
and make 'em rhyme. I said you can
fool some of the people some of
the time, but you can only fool
half the people half the time
He "Yes I do believe this is
true. Would you like to go sniff
some glue? We'll fly to where
the skies are blue and look
for things both bright and true"
And on a pretty Sunday morning
a bunch of pretty Baptist girls
linked their pretty hands and
sang:
Life is shit, Life is Shit
The world is shit, the world is shit
and this is life as I know it.
this is life as I know it.
And in the sky I saw Richard Nixon
smoking a lacey with Mr. Dickson
He said "Son there's someething
I must say I do not believe I've
found a better way" And then a
vision came and it look a lot
like Bob Crane. And Bob sang:
Life is shit, Life is Shit
The world is shit, the world is shit
and this is life as I know it.
this is life as I know it.
And when my friend and I were
done we went to rest upon the
sun 'cause life takes from us
the thing, we love and robs us
of the special ones and puts
them high where we can't climb
and we only miss them all the time
And we sing:
Life is shit, Life is Shit
The world is shit, the world is shit
and this is life as I know it.
this is life as I know it.
