Jude - Life Lays Me Down lyrics

rate me

She was a faker, I was a fool

I tried to make her, I broke the rule

And over coffee the morning next

I learned the reckless have regrets

Life lays me down

Life lays me down

Life lays me down down

But my God was still coming

around around

He was a salesman, I was a fool

He had retirement, I had a stool

And over bourbon and a coca cola

I fought the bad guy and I kept my soul

Life lays me down

Life lays me down

Life can lay me down down

But my God was still coming

around around around around around

And it's a full house flush

With a bass and a brush

And a subtle soft shade of the cheekbone blade

And the world turns around

The sun that is found to be casually gunning

For life overrunning in heels

He squeals and reveals

God don't cut deals

He was a saviour, I was a child

Programmed behaviour and a Santa smile

And over red wine and a little bread

We commune with the divine

And the diva in the priest who'd said

Life lays me down

Life lays me down

Boy life lay you down down

But my God was still coming

around around around around around

And it's a drag queen sheriff of a ghost town Probably since the last days of hate

When the mushroom clouds came down

Smoke signaling too late

CNN broke the blow dry grip

For a flash of the end

Like it's some hot tip

And God

If the last voice I hear on that community screen

Is deeper than Yours and doubly as mean

Then the Jedi knight was right

Life lays me down

Life lays me down

Life lay you down

Life can lay me down

Life lays me down

Life lays me down

Life lay me right down oh now down

Life can lay me down

Life can lay me down

Life can lay me down down down down

Life can lay me down

so hard sometimes I even sing like jazz fusion

And it's a full house flush

With a bass and a brush

And a subtle soft shade of the cheekbone blade

And the world turns around

The sun that is found to be casually gunning

For life overrunning in heels

He squeals and reveals

God don't cut deals

Life lays me down

Life lays me down

Life can lay me down

But my God was still coming

around around around around around

My God
