I face death every day
And I mean that in a literal way
The green is paved with graves of gray
I live across the street from a cemetery
I got a friend who goes to AA
And she says I oughta join her someday
But it's kinda far, and I don't got a car
And the nearest bar is just twelve steps away
I don't care if I don't survive
A carefree vibe is how I ride
And I'll keep thriving till the day I die
Cause the death drive is what keeps me alive
Glass half full with joie de vivre
I'm counting down like it's New Year's Eve
Wild and crazy till I'm pushing daisies
Chain smoking like you wouldn't believe
The world's a stage and life's a cabaret
But I don't want drama - I just wanna play
Have a ball till the curtains fall
Yes, I face death every day
I don't care if I don't survive
A carefree vibe is how I ride
And I'll keep thriving till the day I die
Cause the death drive is what keeps me alive
