"WHILE IT LASTS" lyrics
Your time is of the essence
As soon as it's gone, you don't have no presence
You ain't even a peasant
If you don't always, have you ever meant shit?
You ain't there to reminisce
You ain't somebody that anyone miss
You ain't in Hell or eternal bliss
If you don't always, did you ever exist?
I'll always love being insane
Splashing in the acid rain, butt naked, while it lasts
I'll keep asking, "Who the fuck are you?"
I'd rather be myself, and that I'll do, while it lasts
And all my ninjas off the chain
Will remain mashin' against the grain, while it lasts
And I love how you hate the shit I do
And while it lasts, the shit I'll continue
If there's no other side to look forward to
Then while it lasts, I'll make the best of all I do
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Your sands are fallin' down the hourglass
Enjoy that livin' 'cause the shit don't last
There's only one future, and it's comin' on fast
And you're nothin', fuck your irrelevant past
And I'm gonna keep world traveling
Spreading this clown love to her and him, while it lasts
And I'm gonna stay willing to try
And keep believing I can touch the sky, while it lasts
And I love how you hate the shit I do
And while it lasts, the shit I'll continue
If there's no other side to look forward to
Then while it lasts, I'll make the best of all I do
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Twist and fly to the other side
Ain't no other side, ain't no other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Ain't no other side for you, no
Twist and fly to the other side
Ain't no other side for you
While it lasts, the shit I'll continue
If there's no other side to look forward to
Then while it lasts, I'll make the best of all I do
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Your sands are falling down the hourglass (Down the hourglass)
Your sands are falling down the hourglass (Down the hourglass)
Your sands are falling down the hourglass (Down the hourglass)
Your sands are falling down the hourglass (Down the hourglass)
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Whenever you see a hearse go by
You know you'll be the next die
They wrap you up in bloody sheets
And throw you down ten thousand feet
They put you in a big black box
And cover you up with dirt and rocks
All goes well for about a week
Until your coffin begins to leak
The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out
The worms play pinochle on your snout
They eat your eyes, they eat your nose
They eat the jelly between your toes
A big green worm with rolling eyes
Crawls in your stomach and out your thighs
Your stomach turns a slimy green
And pus pours out like whipping cream
You spread it on a slice of bread
And that's what you eat when you are dead
As soon as it's gone, you don't have no presence
You ain't even a peasant
If you don't always, have you ever meant shit?
You ain't there to reminisce
You ain't somebody that anyone miss
You ain't in Hell or eternal bliss
If you don't always, did you ever exist?
I'll always love being insane
Splashing in the acid rain, butt naked, while it lasts
I'll keep asking, "Who the fuck are you?"
I'd rather be myself, and that I'll do, while it lasts
And all my ninjas off the chain
Will remain mashin' against the grain, while it lasts
And I love how you hate the shit I do
And while it lasts, the shit I'll continue
If there's no other side to look forward to
Then while it lasts, I'll make the best of all I do
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Your sands are fallin' down the hourglass
Enjoy that livin' 'cause the shit don't last
There's only one future, and it's comin' on fast
And you're nothin', fuck your irrelevant past
And I'm gonna keep world traveling
Spreading this clown love to her and him, while it lasts
And I'm gonna stay willing to try
And keep believing I can touch the sky, while it lasts
And I love how you hate the shit I do
And while it lasts, the shit I'll continue
If there's no other side to look forward to
Then while it lasts, I'll make the best of all I do
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Twist and fly to the other side
Ain't no other side, ain't no other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Ain't no other side for you, no
Twist and fly to the other side
Ain't no other side for you
While it lasts, the shit I'll continue
If there's no other side to look forward to
Then while it lasts, I'll make the best of all I do
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Your sands are falling down the hourglass (Down the hourglass)
Your sands are falling down the hourglass (Down the hourglass)
Your sands are falling down the hourglass (Down the hourglass)
Your sands are falling down the hourglass (Down the hourglass)
Your sands are falling down the hourglass
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Twist and fly to the other side
Whenever you see a hearse go by
You know you'll be the next die
They wrap you up in bloody sheets
And throw you down ten thousand feet
They put you in a big black box
And cover you up with dirt and rocks
All goes well for about a week

A big green worm with rolling eyes
Crawls in your stomach and out your thighs
Your stomach turns a slimy green
And pus pours out like whipping cream
You spread it on a slice of bread
And that's what you eat when you are dead
