You Bet Your Life

Get a life, get a job, did you know you were The kind of slob who's in bed asleep all day I used to be that way. Here and now although I never say out loud Now and then you know that there's a moment when I could leave, get out now, get on And roll the world is big and round Anytime, anyday, I used to think that way. Oh but I know it's true she's got a hold on you And then half your life, it just went sailing by. Her whole world's intoxicating me All my senses are at sea. She's the kind of girl, s.he's got you in a whirl It gets so complicated Me, I'm not proud, I'll say now the girl is So frustrating, keeps me wishing. Keeps me waiting. Lost in this world like a child all at sea You see your life drifting by but today's all you need [Here and now, now and then Although I never say out loud Here and now, now and then You know that there's a moment when] Oh I just know it's true she's got a hold on you Oh and it feels so nice, this feels like paradise You bet your life.
