The Mojo Apostles - Life is Fleeting lyrics

rate me

Well come on down

Down to my street

You won’t need your notebook

Most things round here don’t bear repeating

I try to keep my distance

Except some times in the summertime

When the windows are all open cause it’s hot

You see the same old people

And they dance the same old dance

It’s all about hearts and flowers

then you call the ambulance

And she hits the cop who cuffs the man

Because she loves him so

Sha la la la

Well come on down

Just a little bit deeper

You can cast a long blue shadow

From the light of all the big screen theaters hummin

And I am bummin’ not to know

What makes this life so lovely one second

And so damn spiteful in the next

I guess I must have watched

Way too much TV

Cause I’m hooked on happy endings

That so rarely come to be

But still I find my solace

Sucking on her flickering teat

Tra la la la

Buy low and sell it high

You thought you were so sly

None of these dogs could ever drag you down

Now you sing your dying blues

In the cold grey light of ICU

And all anyone can do is send you flowers

That’ll be dead in a week

Life is fleeting

Ohhhhhh!

Life is fleeting

I guess I must have watched

Way too much TV

Cause I’m hooked on happy endings

That so rarely come to be

But still I find my solace

Sucking on her flickering teat

Tra la la la

Life is fleeting

Ohhhhhh!

Life is fleeting.
