Make Life Lyrics

6 or 5, wake up and be alive.
Get ready and get on the road.
Begin the drive.

5 'till 8; a hundred years 'till my lunch break.
Then I try to keep my social life
1 till 4 and over drive.

Over drive.

Tell me why misery slows time.
And when I'm happy, feelin' great, time accelerates.
And tell me too, why life seems to punish you
With work and work and work and no play.
Burn, it burns, it burns years away.

You better find time to make time.
Cheatin' yourself's, your biggest crime.
Step into your spotlight
'Cause it ain't gonna make you,
You gotta make life.

Find time to make time.
Cheatin' yourself's, your biggest crime.
Step into your spotlight
'Cause it ain't gonna make you,
You gotta make life.
You gotta make life.

Seems a shame,
Life is such a dirty game.
Lucky all the chosen few,
Doin' what they wanna do.
But stay your course,
Paid dues will open doors.
And you'll get back what you put in
Times 10.

You better find time to make time
Cheatin' yourself's, your biggest crime
Step into your spotlight
'Cause it ain't gonna make you,
You gotta make life

Find time to make time
Cheatin' yourself's, your biggest crime
Step into your spotlight
'Cause it ain't gonna make you,
You gotta make life

I will save face
By the way I don't go around race
Make the most of all my days
Before they slip away
Before they slip away
Yes, before they slip away

You better find time to make time
Cheatin' yourself's, your biggest crime
Step into your spotlight
'Cause it ain't gonna make you,
You gotta make life

You better find time to make time
Cheatin' yourself's, your biggest crime
Step into your spotlight
'Cause it ain't gonna make you,
You gotta make life

Find time to make time
Cheatin' yourself's, your biggest crime
Step into your spotlight
'Cause it ain't gonna make you,
You gotta make life

Find time to make time
Cheatin' yourself's, your biggest crime
Step into your spotlight
'Cause it ain't gonna make you,
You gotta make life

You better find time to make time
Cheatin' yourself's, your biggest crime
Step into your spotlight
'Cause it ain't gonna make you,
You gotta make life

Tell me why misery slows time
And when I'm happy, feelin' great, time accelerates
Tell me too, why life seems to punish you
With work and work and work and no play
Burns it burns it burns years away

Don't burn your years away
Don't burn your years away, no
Don't burn your years away, no
Don't burn your years away, no
Don't burn your years away, no
Don't burn your years away
'Cause it ain't gonna make you,
You gotta make life
