Just One Lifetime (with Shaggy)

The time has come, the world has said
Talk of many things
Ships and shoes and sealing wax
Of cabbages and kings

Life a the greatest gift given to humanity
Surround yourself with a lot of positive energy
You can't buy it even if you have a whole heap of money
And that's why we spread love ina the community
You coulda be a small man or a celebrity
You coulda lived uptown or the inner city
We need a world full peace and serenity
Sting come sing out for everybody

The time has come, as Shaggy said
To talk of many things
Of ships and shoes and sealing wax
Of cabbages and kings

The planet's tune in retrograde
The moon seems to have fled
The world is spinning upside down
And landed on its head

Just one lifetime
And there's only one, yes there's only one (And there is only one, said there is only one)
Just one life to live (One life to live, yeah!)
Assuming that we'll make it
We've no choice but to take it

I'm with you, the Walrus said
We'll dress for heavy weather (Heavy weather, y'know)
Whatever's on the road ahead
We're in this now together

We thought we'd make a run for it
Not knowing where we're headed
We packed the car with both our bags
And filled her up unleaded

Just one lifetime (One lifetime)
And there's only one, yes there's only one (And there is only one, and there is only one)
Just one life to live (One life to live, yeah!)
Assuming that we'll make it
We've no choice but to take it

Come with me we take a page outta the book of life
Let go negativity and do what's right
We no longer need to fuss or fight
Unite the world and show them what's right
This generation has set a new trend
Replace the word enemy with friends
Leaders of the world these rules can't bend
These are the message we are send to them

The time had come, a reckoning
We all knew it was coming (We all had seen that coming, you know that)
We headed North on empty roads
The engine gently humming (Yeah man)

The Walrus smoked a cigarette
He claimed it was his last
No signs of life, no gas, no food
In all the empty towns we passed

For all we have is me and you
It has to be enough
I've got your back and you've got mine
If the going it gets rough

Just one lifetime (One life to live, yeah)
And there's only one, yes there's only one (And there is only one, and there is only one)
Just one life to live (One, one, one, one life to live)
Assuming that we'll make it (Yeah)
We've no choice but to take it

The time has come, the Walrus said
To talk of many things
Of ships and shoes and sealing wax
Of cabbages and kings
