Live It Up

[Verse 1] Your old lover's lying in the gutter He used to be such an all night strutter "Oh, my heart," I heard him mutter "Oh, my dear, it seems to flutter" Ah, ah, ah, ah [Verse 2] It's so hard to say, "No" When the deck is stacked to only go slow It's easy sweet to, live it up An easy street when you've had enough Ah, ah, ah, ah [Verse 3] Darkened night, splashing light Soft and white and so polite Let him in, beneath the rim Beneath the skin, your next of kin Cleansing fire, funeral pyre Broken wire grown inside her Secret hush, swollen rush It's soft and plush, it's so plush [Instrumental Break] [Verse 4] You know it's so passé To sleep without you every day So easy to do your stuff So easy to live it up Ah, ah, ah, ah
