Testi Soundtracks :: L

There are many minds in circulation

Believing in reincarnation

In me you see one who doesn't agree

Challenging possible affronts

I believe I'll only live once

And I want to make the most of it

If there's a party I want to be the host of it

If there's a haunted house I want to be the ghost of it

If I'm in town I want to be the toast of it

I say to me every morning

You've only one life to live

So why be done in?

Let's see the sun in

And gloom can jump in the river

No use to beat on the doldrums

Let's be imaginative, each day is numbered

No good when slumbered

With only one life to live

Why let the goblins upset you?

One smile and see how they run

And what does worrying get you?

Nothing, the thing is to have fun

All this may sound kind of hackneyed

But it's the best I can give

Soon comes december

So please remember

You've only one life to live

Just one life to live



She says to her every morning

She's only one month to live

So why be done in?

Let's let the sunshine in

And gloom can jump in the river



What you collect at the grindstone

Becomes a millstone in time

This is my thesis:

Why go to pieces?

Step one while you're in your prime

You may say that I'm an escapist

But I would rather by far be that

Than be a red tapist

Lead me, speed me, straight to the bar

Just laugh at old man repression

And send him into oblivion

Then you're the winner

I'm off to dinner

I've only one life to live

Just one life to live
