She was a faker
I was a fool 
I tried to make her
I broke the rule 

And over coffee 
On the morning next 
I learned the rest 
Had regrets

Life lays me down 
Life lays me down 
Life lays me down, down 
But my God will still come around around 

He was a salesman
I was a fool 
He had retirement 
I had a stool 

And over bourbon 
And a Coca Cola 
I fought the bad guy 
And I kept my soul 

Life lays me down 
Life lays me down 
Life can lay me down down 
But my God will still come around around around around around 

And it's a full house flush 
With a bass and a brush 
And a subtle soft shade 
Of the cheekbone blade 

And the world turns around 
The sun which is found 
To be casually gunning
For life overrunning 
In heels 
He squeals and reveals 
God don't cut deals 

He was a savior
I was a child 
Programmed behavior 
And a Santa smile 

And over red wine 
And a little bread 
We commune with the divine 
And the diva in the priest-suit said 

Life lays me down 
Life lays me down 
Boy life lay you down, down 
But my God will still come around around around around around 

And it's a drag queen sheriff of a ghost town 
Probably since the last days of hate
When the mushroom clouds came down 
Smoke signaling too late 
And CNN broke the blow dry grip 
For a flash of the end - like it's some hot tip 

And God
If the last voice I hear on that community screen
Sounds deeper than Yours and doubly as mean
Then the Jedi knight was right 

Life lays me down 
Life lays me down 
Life lay you down 
Life can lay me down 
Life lays me down 
Life lays me down 
Life lay me right down oh now down 
Life can lay me down 
Life can lay me down 
Life can lay me down down down down 
Life can lay me down 
So hard sometimes I even sing light jazz fusion 

And it's a full house flush 
With a bass and a brush 
And a subtle soft shade 
Of the cheekbone blade 

And the world turns around 
The sun which is found 
To be casually gunning
For life overrunning 
In heels 
He squeals and reveals 
God don't cut deals 

Life lays me down 
Life lays me down 
Life can lay me down 
But my God was still coming 
Around around around around around 
My God
