The reaper walks down your avenue He likes to stop in when you don't know what to do Hope you've got nothing planned today And somewhere you swear you remember You heard someone say Today's a good day to die Or so says that actor down on Channel 5 When you're just about living, you're just about dying And it's all the same thing When you're just about living, you're just about dying And they're both the same thing "You're looking down in Kansas", he said Well, it's hard to look thrilled when you're half past dead So the little boy has to k** his self So Mom and Dad can put more food on their shelf And today's a good day to die So they say on that movie down on Channel 5 When you're just about living, you're just about dying And it's all the same thing When you're just about living, you're just about dying And they're both the same thing Maybe we're just waking up to die anyway Maybe we're just waking up to die
I knew a man, he had a girl They built their whole house in a big old world And now she looks at him with a tear stained face Maybe we're just waking up to die anyway Maybe we're just waking up to die He had two jobs and he was never home And when he came back she'd still be in bed alone Looking at him with a tear stained face Maybe we're just waking up to die just in case Maybe we're just waking up and want to try The reaper walks down my alleyway, he drops right in When I don't know what to say, if you're the rainy day man Then go away and come again some other day And it's not such a good day to die I turned off the man on Channel 5 anyway When you're just about living, you're just about dying And it's all the same thing When you're just about living, you're just about dying And they're both the same thing Maybe we're just waking up to try anyway Maybe we're just waking up to try
