lyrics

Well every man’s on this victory march

And all the saints are on the arch

And the gallions go with those who chose to chase after the lark



Chuck an anchor overboard

Hit your head on the cement

Let me take you down first avenue

And show you my lament



Well I was driving in my car and it was like a time machine

I said you see these things we see outside they’re things we’ve never seen



And the way we live our lives is really all a lie

We die first and then are born again forget and live our lives

Forget and live your life

Forget and live your life

Forget and live your life, oh



And I was sailing in a war ship

with a twenties football team

I said let’s furnish all these ships

with skin clad kicks and diamond demons

And we’ll go around the world and never come back

Not until this history’s future

And the future’s in the past

The future’s in the past

The future’s in the past at last, oh



Well I was driving in my car and it was like a time machine

I said you see these things we see outside they’re things we’ve never seen



And the way we live our lives is really all a lie

We die first and then are born again forget and live our lives

Forget and live your life

Forget and live your life

Forget and live your life, oh
