Shit hits the fan but you can’t stop spinning You do what you can but you can not win it On and on and on it goes The end of the road is coming nearer That it’s a wall is becoming clearer On and on and on it goes And all these highs they’ll get you down And all these lows they follow you around Run for the carrot you’ll never catch You’re just a monkey go live with that On and on and on it goes The searing headache won’t go away Didn’t you know that’s the price you’ll pay On and on and on it goes So where’s that light that never goes out (again) At the borderline, let’s go

This is modern living This is common sense There’s no easy way out This is the wrong way home This ship isn’t sinking This is the next top ten These are the golden greats and This is Paul King speaking Lost parts of my body I don’t even miss The light of the party is totally pissed So look what you’ve started your ego’s a shit against all of science’s fictions Gather round and lip-sync the past Hey this cheap trick is working at last Forever, forever – you just don’t know what it’s like This is modern living Make sure you can keep up Pick all the low hanging fruits before the next bomb drops Better duck and cover before it makes you sad Life doesn’t feel the same since Grumpy Cat is dead

I got this bad habit of speaking my mind I'll always fuck up if I feel so inclined I got this ego that is louder than you but if you find out I don't know what to do To all the friends and enemies you deserve another song I'd say thanks to the Academy but I guess that they were wrong And there's this fine line between high and low and if you find out I don't know where to go with the doubts and suspicions, the bad prejudices I own To all the friends and enemies you deserve another song I'd say thanks to the Academy but I guess that they were wrong But wrong turns right on a Saturday night you can't argue being drunk on a bike I don't believe in destiny but this here is the best of me you know But wrong turns right on a Saturday night you can't argue being drunk on a bike I don't believe in destiny but I'm supposed to be here with you tonight I am not afraid of anything but the past but for the future, I hope this moment will last

I guess that you were quite right to say: we are all that matters Autumn comes and blows jazz songs into our head I guess I would be better to stay We’ve reached Checkpoint Charlie and the guided tour is all they recommend Colours bursting all around us I don’t care if that’s the last bus home Take my hand and come on over, there’s some Russians playing polka in the subway Surprise, surprise we are still here After all is said and done, you’re still here but summer’s gone Chicago my love You can kiss my ass goodbye After all is said and done, birds are singing another song According to the latest reports We skipped stormy weather And we ride into the sunset on a dead horse We wonder how the time passed before Guess it would be better to just celebrate the happiest divorce Nothing comes for free Except a clever-sounding reason to say no But all the time I’m freezing That’s a clever-sounding reason to say no

We have tried so hard to kill ourselves With maths and science and something else Until we found the pills won’t help We will stay here forever Jump upon this speeding hearse Forever still feels like a curse We’ll only change from bad to worse But we will stay Just another night we’ll take the wrong way home Just another bittersweet overdose I don’t mind if we stay for a while We’ll be living it up for one last season This is our time to shine before we’re fading I guess we’re fading into something grand We have tried so hard to fuck this up Then they invented double cups But we even survived muck pup We will stay here forever Smashed our heads into the wall There’s so much shit I don’t recall But do we even care at all? We will stay Cross my heart This is the start of something grand

There was a time when it felt hard to stand in line Cause nothing’s ever changing for the better Expecting things, foreseeing what the future brings And in the end you find it doesn’t matter You’ve taken all the best of me come on and take the rest of me Just one more time and I don’t even care About the things that used to be, the fashion and the industry Just one more time and, baby, I’ll be there Can it get any better? Do you think it’s all said and done? This may come as a surprise but the best is still to come We’ve been changing like the weather But our hearts are still going strong This may come as a surprise but the best is still to come We‘re caving in Because we know that we can’t win This rat race fort he most authentic loser We got so tired Of all these smiles with crying eyes Don’t let the heartache in, it will seduce you We switched our brains off Was fucking overdue We started chaos Now everything’s in perfect order
