Lyrics
NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE
CHORUS
It's a wonderful scary thing -- this crazy thing called life
And no one gets out of it alive
Doesn't matter what you believe -- because when it comes time to leave
Nobody gets out of it alive
VERSE 1
Caught between the devil and the deep blue see
Time to decide who you want to be
Right or wrong, when you're gone, you'll be judged by history
CHORUS
VERSE 2
Better steer clear of a Faustian deal
No matter how good it makes you feel
Knew it would sound too good, too good to be real
CHORUS
VERSE 3
Time to have a drink with a special friend
Give your elbow another bend
When you go, all alone, that's the way it always ends
CHORUS
VERSE 1/4
Caught between the devil and the deep blue see
Time to decide who you want to be
Right or wrong, when you're gone, you'll be judged by history
CHORUS x2
