Every time you talk it's all a mess
But I read the proof right off your breath
You been drinking alone
All alone
You never were the type
To ever say what you don't like
When they did you wrong
All wrong
If creatures in the trees can life their life just like they please
Is that so wrong?
All alone
Well every cop argues with me
But every outlaw does agree
The weeds are too long
To ever mow the lawn
But if you'd like to pick a fight
(I say) go find yourself a wife
Cuz there's no point
There's no point
Cuz people mostly see the things that they want to believe
But hey, that's their right
It's their life
So they lie and they cheat
As they die on their feet
And they fight on their knees
While they sharpen their teeth on their wives
Yeah it's their life
You know they got their rights
It's their life
Some folk can watch the televisions
And shake and roar with all passion
That turns the world
Just to feel heard
But wouldn't sacrifice one wink of sleep
To wake up to the shame that we've all earned
We'll all get our turn
You find yourself in freedom once you keep the things you learned
So long ago
Let the rest go
You could hitchike or drive
Take a plane through the sky
You could sleep on a train ride
Chasing the days into night
Cuz yeah it's your life
Make it what you like
Your life
