Until We Fall In |
La, la, la, la, la, la...la, la, la, la Yeah, oh, whoa, yeah Every junkie knows the fix won't last Strung out but he keeps on coppin' Every politician with a shady past Hopes a love child don't come knockin' Every alcoholic swears "This drink's the last" Every broker was a genius till the market crashed Every gambler on a streak knows that he can't win But he keeps on bettin' till the sky caves in CHORUS: We can't breathe underwater And we don't know how to swim But we keep on rockin' the boat Until we fall in La, la, la, la, la, la Every stand-up comic has a serious night Every streetwalker's somebody's daughter Every soldier in the war's got God on his side That's why we can't stop the slaughter Every magazine cover has been retouched Every generation swears "It won't happen to us" But it can, and it will, and we do, and it does Ya wanna know why? It's because... CHORUS Until we fall in, yeah, yeah, yeah We should quit while we're ahead, instead We wait to get knocked around Cause you never need the lifeboat Till the ship is going down Well, look around Every now and then life calls your bluff You gotta walk the talk you're talking Everybody wishes they could just shut up But we just keep going on and on and on and on and on... We can't breathe underwater And we don't know how to swim But we're crossing all our fingers Strippin' down and diving in We can't breathe underwater And we don't know how to swim But we keep on rockin' the boat Until we fall in Until we fall in La, la, la, la, la, la, la...la, la, la, la Careful what you're wishing for Ya just might get it Live today 'cause if you don't You might live to regret it That's all I'm saying... |
