| Maybe life is curious to see what you would do
|
| With the gift of being left alive
|
| How love, how give
|
| Spread the higher purpose
|
| And cut through all the shuck and jive
|
| It’s only natural, maybe superstitious
|
| To try and find the meaning in beating the odds
|
| Cause sometimes you gotta (get down on your knees)
|
| Sometime (could you get down on your knees)
|
| Sometimes baby (maybe get down on your knees)
|
| And thank the whole wide universe of God’s for letting you
|
| Live out the string
|
| A little longer boy
|
| Raise your voice and make a joyful noise
|
| Ain’t no guarantee of anything
|
| Live out the string
|
| Now that a meteorite has fallen in the chair
|
| You just got out of to answer the phone
|
| Will you live every moment like it just might be the last
|
| Or will you still just bitch and moan
|
| Fate is kind, fate is cruel, fate is terminally cool
|
| It’s a random interruption in the middle of your groove
|
| But sometime (won't you get down on your knees)
|
| Sometime (get down on your knees)
|
| Sometimes baby (better get down on your knees)
|
| And find yourself a deeper groove, yeah
|
| Live out the string
|
| A little longer boy
|
| Raise your voice and make a joyful noise
|
| Ain’t no guarantee of anything
|
| So live out the string (the string)
|
| Who knows if we got angels on our shoulders (move on)
|
| Right now with the devil in the street
|
| Who knows if it means we got more work to do
|
| But hey baby, don’t the air taste sweet
|
| Hey baby, don’t the air taste sweet
|
| (hey baby, don’t the air taste sweet)
|
| Get down on your knees
|
| Get down on your knees
|
| Live out the string
|
| Live out the string
|
| (yeah-ah, yeah-ah, yeah-ah)
|
| Maybe life is curious to see what you would do
|
| With the gift of being left alive |
