Did you ever read Voltaire's Candide he says live life at Benny Hill freak out speed
      Em                           Bm                 Em              F#m   D
Not a quote of what he wrote but a paraphrase make it up as you go Keyser Soze
Em                   Bm                       Em                   F#m    D
Highlights, yes, but don't underline 'em just live for N.O.W. like Gloria Steinem
Em              Bm             Em                        F#m   D
Life is like Marion Barry it's not all that it's cracked up to be
     Em                Bm                         Em                 F#m      D
Like Fred Sanford when the big one comes find the meaning of life is there is none
     Em                         Bm               Em                F#m       D
It's twenty-four hours when you call it a day be Frank and say: "I did it my way"
Em                         Bm                       Em                   F#m        D
Don't give a flying nun no don't give a Gidget just have more fun than a well-oiled midget
   Em                        Bm                         Em                       F#m          D
If life were picture perfect you could frame it but the world is a diaper so let someone else change it
 
 
[Chorus]
 
G                  Bm                  Em
Life is an aimless drive that ya take alone
G                       Bm                      Em
Might as well enjoy the ride, take the long way home

All born equal unless you're Canadian then halfway through decay like Uranium
Em                Bm                    Em                         F#m       D
You define what's death-defying get the most out of life or at the least die trying
        Em           Bm                  Em                         F#m     D
Are you Evil Knievel jumping a train? or running with scissors like Frasier Crane?
     Em                      Bm                        Em                       F#m      D
Have really good times doing really bad things cos the show ain't over 'til the fat lady sings
     Em                  Bm                      Em                          F#m    D
Like Elton John with his candle in the wind it's hard to blow out a flame as big as him
          Em                    Bm                   Em                                     F#m D
But we've all got to Wang Chung with the Grim Reaper whether you're Einstein whether you're Beaker
Em                       Bm                            Em                             F#m D
Death is certain so it's definitely worth flirtin don't expect a bright light no just curtains
Em                        Bm                       Em                       F#m     D
Life is like a penis most people don't know it but most people sick so they usually blow it
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
G                  Bm                  Em
Life is an aimless drive that ya take alone
G                       Bm                      Em
Might as well enjoy the ride, take the long way home
