[Verse 1]
Sat on my grandmother's couch, she was
On the phone to a friend
She said, 'We'll see you one of these days
Maybe when the sun shines again'
[Chorus]
Don't you know it's a short life, short life
It's a short life and
No one makes it out alive
[Verse 2]
In the passenger seat of my mother's car
She's telling stories about when
She danced at the local disco to American Pie
While the DJ had a cigarette
And sometimes I think she wishes she could go back
And start all over again
Run away from the altar, 'cause this life was
A disappointment
[Chorus]
Don't you know it's a short life, short life
It's a short life
And no one makes it out alive
Don't you know it's a short life, short life
It's a short life
No one makes it out alive
Ooh
Ooh
[Verse 3]
Well, it only makes me wanna go
Live every day like it's my last
But when you wake up every day to the grey [?] sky
It's so hard to remember that
[Chorus]
Remember that it's a good life, good life
It's a good life and
You are lucky to be alive
Remember that it's a good life, good life
It's a good life
You're lucky to be alive
Ooh
Ooh
