Short Life

I'm a smoker, that is true
But I may last longer than you
You may be hit by a speeding truck
It's all, just a question of luck

Or I may get a deadly disease
Like cancer, or AIDS, or legionaries
If you don't look at it as fun
You may get hijacked, and killed with a gun

'Cos it's a short life in this world
Short life for you and me girl
Short life in this world
We've got to try

It's a sobering thought, that's for sure
You may not see it past 64
Enjoy your life, while you're free
C'mon, have a drink with me

Too many working for deferred reward
Too many worries that you're uninsured
Get outside and breath the air
It's all there, for us to share

'Cos it's a short life in this world
Short life for you and me girl
Short life in this world
We've got to try

'Cos it's a short life in this world
Short life for you and me girl
Short life in this world
We've got to try

If you're living with deceit and lies
And every day you change your alibis
Stop and think about the mess you're in
Speak your mind, from within

If you don't enjoy your day
You shouldn't be wasting your time away
If you don't listen to your heart, only your head
You might as well, already be dead

'Cos it's a short life in this world
Short life for you and me girl
Short life in this world
We've got to try

'Cos it's a short life in this world
Short life for you and me girl
Short life in this world
We've got to try
