Have you noticed he’s got a wondering eyeball?
It’s right there in his face
Every word that he uses can make the sky fall
(Make the sky fall)
And it’s all just to come in at first place
There’s no time to smell the roses
No time to change things or expose him
So stick your head in the sand
Lalalala,
Lalalala,
Lalalala,
Lalalala,
Lalalala,
Lala,
(Lalalala)
You know butter won’t melt inside of his mouth hole
And he’s way too cool for school
He has everyone fooled that they are the liars
He ain’t wrong, he’s just bending the rules.
There’s no time to smell the roses
No time to change things or expose him
So stick your head in the sand
Lalalala,
Lalalala,
Lalalala,
Lalalala,
Lalalala,
Lala,
Don’t stress just sit right back
Relax, get those feet up on the desk
We’re all just breaking our backs
To dig our way out of this mess
A slapped back, ‘we’re alright Jack!’
This is where we’re at, Lalalala
We break our backs, digging away
Digging away, digging
Digging away, lalalala
There’s no time to smell the roses
(Lalalala)
(Lalalala)
No time to change things or expose him
(Lalalala)
Lalalala
Lalalala

Steal the midnight flight
While the signals jammed
Just kids, we should be outside
Kicking cola cans, cola cans
Ignition sequence start
Count down to blast off
5,4,3,2,1
In the Slipstream
We might blow ourselves to bits
In the Slipstream, hey,
Most of the time we’re only doing it for the kicks
All systems blown but they say
Go hard or go home
So sound the alarm
We’re not going down today
No way
Hit the navicom
Shout out for pilot number one
Come on, turn the radio on
This is our song, this is our song
Ignition sequence start
Count down to blast off
Only takes a second for a winner to be born
In the Slipstream
We might blow ourselves to bits
In the Slipstream, hey,
Most of the time we’re only doing it for the kicks
All systems blown but they say
Go hard or go home
So sound the alarm
We’re not going down today
No way
5,4,3,2,1,
We’re not going down
(Down)
5,4,3,2,1
5,4,3,2,1
In the Slipstream
In the Slipstream (hey)
In the Slipstream
5,4,3,2,1
Oh yeah in the Slipstream
5,4,3,2,1,

It’s a cold day in hell
Just like you like it
But don’t be a stranger
We’re always cruelest to ourselves in some way
I watch you tear yourself apart
Take heart
It might be to soon to say
Did my fist break your fall this time?
Was that what you wanted?
It might be too soon to say
Do you need a dare, a rush, a gamble?
To set yourself on fire to feel alive?
It’s a strange way to think
Always pushing it to the brink
In the thick of thin things
There’s nothing out there to fill that void
It cuts deep on the inside
You’ve got to figure it out. Figure it out
It might be too soon to say
You kill it when you hold on so tight
Was that what you wanted?
It might be too soon to say
Do you need a dare, a rush, a gamble?
To feel alive, alive, alive, alive!
To feel alive
It’s a cool day in hell, just like I like it
But I won’t be a stranger
You keep on burning down the bridge
We’re standing on
And it’s the only way out of this town
Don’t be a stranger
Oooo oh no, don’t be a stranger
It’s the only way to feel alive
To feel alive
To feel alive
To be alive

Live a little

You’re always counting the days
Wishing your life away
Always looking for reasons
To keep on believing everything is wrong
You like to wear a constant frown
To spread your doom and gloom around
Oh yeah! Oh no!
You’ve got that look on your face again
I know what it means
I know what you’re gonna say
But it’s time to live a little
Die a little
Try a little more
It’s all right here for you
Here for you
You’re always looking for ways
To screw up your own day
You find it hard to believe
That you have the freedom to choose to be happy
To choose to see the light blue sky
To look for kindness in their eyes
Oh yeah! Oh no!
You’ve got that look on your face again
I know what it means
I know what you’re gonna say
Hey
Hey yeah
It’s time to live a little
It’s time to die a little
It’s time to try a little more
It’s all right here
It’s time to live a little
It’s time to die a little
It’s time to smile a little more
It’s all right here for you
It’s all right here for you
It’s all right here for you
It’s all right here, oh yeah
It’s all right here for you
It’s all right here for you
It’s all right here for you
It’s all right here
Oh yeah, here for you
