No One Lives Forever - 1988 Boingo Alive Version
You worry too much
You make yourself sad
You can't change fate
But don't feel so bad
Enjoy it while you can
It's just like the weather
So quit complaining brother
No one lives forever!
Let's have a party there's a full moon in the sky
It's the hour of the wolf and I don't want to die
I'm so happy dancing while the grim reaper
cuts, cuts, cuts
But he can't get me
I'm as clever as can be, and I'm very quick,
But don't forget we've only got so many tricks
No one lives forever!
You think you got it rough?
What about your darling doggy?
Ten short years,
He's getting old and groggy
I don't think it's very fair
Cold, chop, low, but it's all relative my friend;
No one lives forever!
Let's have a party there's a full moon in the sky
It's the hour of the wolf and I don't want to die
(But) No one beats him at his game
For very long but just the same
Who cares, there's no place safe to hide
Nowhere to run--no time to cry
So celebrate while you still can
'Cause any second it may end.
And when it's all been said and done . . .
Better that you had some fun
Instead of hiding in a shell,
Why make your life a living hell?
So have a toast, and down the cup
And drink to bones that turn to dust,
'Cause No one, no one, no one, no one . . . . . . .
No one lives forever!
(Hey!)
You make yourself sad
You can't change fate
But don't feel so bad
Enjoy it while you can
It's just like the weather
So quit complaining brother
No one lives forever!
Let's have a party there's a full moon in the sky
It's the hour of the wolf and I don't want to die
I'm so happy dancing while the grim reaper
cuts, cuts, cuts
But he can't get me
I'm as clever as can be, and I'm very quick,
But don't forget we've only got so many tricks
No one lives forever!
You think you got it rough?
What about your darling doggy?
Ten short years,
He's getting old and groggy
I don't think it's very fair
Cold, chop, low, but it's all relative my friend;
No one lives forever!
Let's have a party there's a full moon in the sky
It's the hour of the wolf and I don't want to die
(But) No one beats him at his game
For very long but just the same
Who cares, there's no place safe to hide
Nowhere to run--no time to cry
So celebrate while you still can
'Cause any second it may end.
And when it's all been said and done . . .
Better that you had some fun
Instead of hiding in a shell,
Why make your life a living hell?
So have a toast, and down the cup
And drink to bones that turn to dust,
'Cause No one, no one, no one, no one . . . . . . .
No one lives forever!
(Hey!)
