lyrics

I'm staring down a barrel of monkeys.
I'm gonna drive my car right into a garage.
I've got this bottle of pills called Vitamin C.
I'm gonna take this needle, and sew a patch on my jeans.

I wanna live my life, wanna live my life, wanna live my life like I'm alive.
'Cause one of these days I know, one of these days I know that I'm gonna die.
In the meantime life ain't gonna pass me... I ain't gonna let life pass me by
I wanna live my life, wanna live my life, wanna live my life like I'm alive.

I'm standing on this bridge to try and get a good view.
I'm gonna take this knife, and I'm gonna cut my food.
Things ain't never gonna change so what's the use in whining?
I'm writing my last words that I'll write for the night.

I wanna live my life, wanna live my life, wanna live my life like I'm alive.
'Cause one of these days I know, one of these days I know that I'm gonna die.
In the meantime life ain't gonna pass me... I ain't gonna let life pass me by
I wanna live my life, wanna live my life, wanna live my life like I'm alive.

I'm gonna get me a pistol tattooed on my skin.
I'm gonna take this razor and I'm gonna cut my beard.
I've got this rope in my hand, and I'm gonna hang my clothes.
I'm walkin' out into traffic to try to catch a cab home.

I wanna live my life, wanna live my life, wanna live my life like I'm alive.
'Cause one of these days I know, one of these days I know that I'm gonna die.
In the meantime life ain't gonna pass me... I ain't gonna let life pass me by
I wanna live my life, wanna live my life, wanna live my life like I'm alive
