SING ALONG TILL DEATH

 

a song to sing along in your prime 

love is more corrosive than lime 

attentions are paid to waste 

we are all born with so much hate 

a wise word is not enough for the wise

to gain wisdom, you need to pay a price 

everyone prays to make it to heaven 

no one has heard part story from the devil  

a belly full of wine forgets sorrow 

he talks recklessly forgetting overmorrow 

let him be, let him forget his sadness in peace 

if lucky, he will from there rest in peace 

a locket you clutched to to watch time 

but pockets empty, not even a dime 

praises you will be showered if you’re rich 

they won’t tell you the truth, no one will preach 

fireflies flies at night to lighten your part 

we complain still that it isn’t bright 

tell me our contribution to Mother Earth 

ours is to plunder, destroy and wrestle with death 

a lame dreams he will someday walk

the dump wishes he could talk

who knows what the future holds 

soonest, we will all be buried in a fold 

the world is too loud and noisy 

I need to lay down in cozy 

make it six feet if possible 

life gives no through pass but only dribbles 

sing along songs of death 

sooner or later we will all regret 

life is vanity upon vanity 

even if you practice chastity
