Funk the fear

Live your life

Why don’t we seize the day

And frost it in our own way?

Why don’t we take a slice of this paradise

Eating it with your eyes

Just shy of your

To reach out and lift the glass

But there’s no one here to ask

(The invisible beat of a drum)

March in line

(Even though)

For no reason or I know?

Facing that dream about

Paradise pigging out

I wanna break the rules with you

And see the dream come true

What I need you to do is

(Funk the fear, live your life)

Just like we came here to

(Funk the fear, live your life)

I want to do it with thee

(Funk the fear, live your life)

Just like we came here to

(Funk the fear, live your life)

Live your life

Funk the fear, live your life

Why don’t we go and do

Just what we came here to?

Nobody has to know

The moral of our show

(We could be) Spiritual smiling fools

All parked just to cash their jewels

Innocent as a fox

Another unchecked box, yeah

We appear

(With a beautiful slip of the tongue)

That you're here for a reason

Waking you from a daze

Follow me down the maze

Through every craft and craze

For every bad and divine

Ways opening my mind

I can tell

(Or the marginal mention of one)

Very well

But your heartbeat's calling you up and out

That’s what this show’s about

I wanna break the rules with you

And see the dream come true

What I need you to do is

(Funk the fear, live your life)

Just like we came here to

(Funk the fear, live your life)

I want to do it with thee

(Funk the fear, live your life)

Just like we came here to

(Funk the fear, live your life)

I want to do it with thee

(Funk the fear, live your life)

Just like we came here to

(Funk the fear, live your life)

Live your life

Funk the fear, live your life (repeats until song fades out)

Cause in an instant it could be gone

And all the waiting was in vain

Cause in an instant it could be gone

It could be gone
