Kinks - Live Life - Текст песни

Have you heard about trouble throughout the land

With the fascists and the left wing militants

Out of work executives are killing themselves

And the i.r.a. are killing everybody else

Dont panic, dont lose control

Keep your head, keep ahold

Act normal theres nothing wrong

Stay cool, just carry on

You gotta live life and be yourself

You cant live life for anyone else

You gotta live life thats all you do

Nobody gonna live your life for you

Dont get depressed when you read in the press

About world revolution and social unrest

Try not to panic when you switch on the news

And see crooked politicians and the unemployment queues

Its only life its really fine

So dont you believe all you read in the headlines

Live life see it through

Carry on its all you can do

You gotta live life for yourself, cant live for anyone else

You gotta live life, thats all you do

Nobody gonna live their life for you

Extra verse from long version:

Trendy intellectuals always take action,

For every cause thats ever been in fashion.

Weekend revolutionaries protest and sing

Because theyre dedicated followers of any old thing.

They got every solution for every revolution.

They live in the slums just like the poor people do

But theyd rather sniff coke instead of glue.

Right-wing fascists beat up the blacks,

Then they salute the union jack.

You cant pretent theres nothing wrong,

Its not the end, so just carry on.

Oh, lifes a mother, oh, lifes a mother

Oh, lifes a mother, oh, lifes a mother

You gotta live life for yourself, cant live life for anyone else

You gotta live life, thats all you can do

Nobody gonna live their life for you

Live life, you gotta live life

You gotta live life, you gotta live life
