It's My Life

Suddenly he was knocking on my window
"Your time has come, let's go"
So I said:
"What do you mean my time has come, there are so many things I still have to do"

I want to make the money
I want to play the game
I want to slaughter a scapegoat
Then find a sucker to blame

I want to choose my parents
I want to change my name
To just ignore the quilt
And to dismiss the shame

I want to be a prophet
To be a crystal ball
So I can win the lottery
And then just lose it all

I want to rule my kingdom
I want to be a clown
I want to build my city
I want to burn down the town

It's my life – I want to live forever
It's my life – I never want to die
It's my life – I want to live forever
I want to live forever – and then I want to die

I want to be a puppet
Conducting my own show
I want to be a trumpet
Waiting for the wind to blow

I want to dig a treasure
I want to be filthy rich
I want to dig my grave
Bury the money and ditch

I want to be a marionette
Pulling my own strings
I want to be a rocket man
To fly and crash with no wings

You have to learn to crash
Before you try to fly
You have to learn to live
Before it's time to die

It's my life – I want to live forever
It's my life – I never want to die
It's my life – I want to live forever
I want to live forever – and then I want to die
