LYRIC FOR SALE

By Bernard Morris

(verse 1)
Bamboo raft along the river
Eco-friendly in Jamaica
Play guitar in a rock band
On the stage with Kula Shaker
Drive naked along the M1
Make a bumper sticker
Have a race with Usain Bolt
And try to run much quicker
Attend a black tie gala
Enjoy a body detox
Learn a brand new language
Make lots of silly Tik Toks
Cook a Christmas dinner
Do a wheelie on a bike
Write a joke for Frank Skinner
Get up and sing on the mic

(chorus)
The life we live is far too short
I wish I could rewind
For I have done most everything
But only in my mind

(verse 2)
Kiteboard over wavy oceans
Attend the Olympics
Pick up an electric guitar
And play like Jimi Hendrix
Explore the deepest darkest forest
Visit Yellowstone
Talk to everyone in the world
On my telephone
Throw oranges in Ivrea
Flyboard over France
Climb an active volcano
And learn how to dance
Have a sexy threesome
Converse with a stranger
Make sure endangered species
Are kept well out of danger

(chorus)
The life we live is far too short
I wish I could rewind
For I have done most everything
But only in my mind
(instrumental bridge)

(chorus)
The life we live is far too short
I wish I could rewind
For I have done most everything
But only in my mind

(verse 3)
Create a family logo
Attend a boxing match
Play a game of cricket
And learn how to catch
Wear sexy lingerie
Sail on a yacht
Learn how to cook an Indian curry
Mild or very hot
Polar Bear Plunge in the USA
Donate all your old clothes
Waterski with bare feet
Feed 5,000 with just 5 loaves
Race in the Indy 500
Sleep in a haunted house
Try to have more courage
Be a man and not a mouse

(verse 4)
Explore the deepest caverns
Ride the Trans-Siberian Railway
Make sure that you go to Heaven
By climbing up the stairway
Attend the Cannes Film Festival
Hang glide off a big tall mountain
Try to write a great song like
Reel Around The Fountain
Climb to the top of a very tall tree
Base jump off a cliff
Listen to Dark Side Of The Moon
Whilst smoking the biggest spliff
Hug a total stranger
Kiss on top of the Eiffel Tower
The biggest pizza in the world
In one go try to devour

(chorus)
The life we live is far too short
I wish I could rewind
For I have done most everything
But only in my mind
