Lyrics
Get On With Your Short Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You keep saying that one day things could
be fabulous,
If only you had the right shoes, new
clothes, the dream team doing your hair.
Why do you have to waste time on your
waistline when you could be having
dinner with me?
Will you really be the winner
if you're thinner?
How can I make you see?
Get on with your short life,
Get on with this sweet precious time,
You know you're only dreaming
So why don't you wake up and get on
with your short life
You keep praying that some day things
will be different
If you only had the right lips, killer hips,
a sun kissed permanent tan
But does it really matter if you're fatter
than everybody else on the screen
It's more important to be truthful than just
youthful on the cover of some magazine
Get on with your short life,
Get on with this sweet precious time,
You know you're only dreaming
So why don't you wake up and get on with
your short life
