Life Lays Me Down **************** She was a faker I was a fool I tried to make her I broke the rule And over coffee On the morning next I learned the rest Had regrets Life lays me down Life lays me down Life lays me down, down But my God will still come around around He was a salesman I was a fool He had retirement I had a stool And over bourbon And a Coca Cola I fought the bad guy And I kept my soul Life lays me down Life lays me down Life can lay me down down But my God will still come around around around around around And it's a full house flush With a bass and a brush And a subtle soft shade Of the cheekbone blade And the world turns around The sun which is found To be casually gunning For life overrunning In heels He squeals and reveals God don't cut deals He was a savior I was a child Programmed behavior And a Santa smile And over red wine And a little bread We commune with the divine And the diva in the priest-suit said Life lays me down Life lays me down Boy life lay you down, down But my God will still come around around around around around And it's a drag queen sheriff of a ghost town Probably since the last days of hate When the mushroom clouds came down Smoke signaling too late And CNN broke the blow dry grip For a flash of the end - like it's some hot tip And God If the last voice I hear on that community screen Sounds deeper than Yours and doubly as mean Then the Jedi knight was right Life lays me down Life lays me down Life lay you down Life can lay me down Life lays me down Life lays me down Life lay me right down oh now down Life can lay me down Life can lay me down Life can lay me down down down down Life can lay me down So hard sometimes I even sing light jazz fusion And it's a full house flush With a bass and a brush And a subtle soft shade Of the cheekbone blade And the world turns around The sun which is found To be casually gunning For life overrunning In heels He squeals and reveals God don't cut deals Life lays me down Life lays me down Life can lay me down But my God was still coming Around around around around around My God
