Cycles of Life

Handsome Bobby Playboy
Has lots of friends
He was quite adept at burning candles at both ends
When his parents warned him about the dangers of the dark
He said, listen, you old people just don't have
My level of experience in these matters
And frankly, you should just learn to chill and lighten up

And you should dig this
The cycles of life will continue
As long as the stars choose to burn
Yeah the cycles of life will continue
And you old folks are just gonna have to learn

Trustworthy Fellow is charming
All that he tells you is true
When you suggest that he should give it a rest
He says I can't believe how cynical you could be
To suggest that I might have an agenda
And that everything that I tell you isn't absolutely truthful always
After all, my name is Trustworthy

That's why I picked it and you should dig this
The cycles of life will continue
As long as the stars choose to burn
Yeah the cycles of life will continue
And you old folks just gonna have to learn

Why do you vex me with everything that you say?
Does every word from your mouth just have to be a cliché?
Well I lay it down, man, in the structure of a song
Just 'cause it's a cliché
Don't mean it's wrong

And you should dig this
The cycles of life will continue
As long as the stars choose to burn
Yeah the cycles of life will continue
And you young folks are just gonna have to learn

The cycles of life
We're going to have to get down with those cycles, man
The cycles of life
It's not like there's a reasonable alternative

The cycles of life
The cycles of life
The cycles of life
The cycles of life
