"Everybody Wants To Live" lyrics

"Everybody Wants To Live"

A cigarette butt when you throw it in the water, goes ssth
But the trick, but the trick is you shouldn't laugh
'Cause if you start laughin' you're just a coward
If you start laughin' you're just a coward

Everybody wants to live just once
Everybody's got to see it that way-ay-ay-ay
And see what your life
What your life
What your life can be

There's been songs about celebration
But if you ask me, I can't see why
There's too much pain, too much pain in my heart now
Oo, you're gonna have to prove it to me

Everybody wants to live just once
Everybody's got to see it that way-ay-ay-ay
And see what your life
What your life
What your life can be

Now some people talk about ecology
Why don't somebody do somethin' 'bout it right now?
And we're all chokin' on the air that we breathe now
How could we all just let it slide by?

Everybody wants to live, just once
Everybody's got to see it that way-ay-ay-ay
And see what your life
What your life
What your life can be
