Seize The Day
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.
I don't care to be bad
I prefer to think twice
All I know is it's quite a show
But it's still alright to be nice
Yankee toes and Eskimos can turn to frozen ice
When the cold days come, and the old ways fade away
There’ll be no more Sun, and we’ll wish that we had held on to the day
Seize the day
I don't mean to be wrong
I don't mean to be right
I'm okay on a sunny day
When the world deserves to be bright
Dinosaurs and Santa Claus will stay indoors tonight
When the cold days come, and the old ways fade away
Thеre’ll be no more Sun, and wе’ll wish that we had held on to the day
Seize the day
Seize the day
I bless the day when you came into my life
And I could finally roll back the blind
You helped me to realize that love was the greatest prize
I only had to open my mind
Seize the day
Seize the day
Seize the day
Seize the day
Seize the day
I don't care to be bad
I prefer to think twice
All I know is it's quite a show
But it's still alright to be nice
Yankee toes and Eskimos can turn to frozen ice
When the cold days come, and the old ways fade away
There’ll be no more Sun, and we’ll wish that we had held on to the day
Seize the day
Seize the day
