lyrics

Ya Got One Life to Live so live it well
We Got ONE BIG Earth Upon which we dwell
And we can make it heaven oh or we can make it hell
Ya Got One LIfe to Live so Live it well

Now some folks live their lives in fear for what tomorrow holds
But I don't want to waste my time on things no one can know
I'd rather smile as life floats by and shed a tear when it's time to cry
I'll walk boldly in faith e'er as I go

If you think that life is hard and tough well that's what life will be
If you're looking at the problems then its problems you will see
But don't be surprised by your two eyes when your life turns out crappy
Man ya jinxed yourself and predetermined your reality

It's 'bout time we grow uuuupp and take responsibility
most of life's big problems are caused by you and me!
If we open our miiiiinds and start thinking differently
We'll soon see, just how easy, living with each other in peace can be
