The Mojo Apostles – Life Is Fleeting lyrics

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.
