Richard Dodd - The Cliche Song lyrics

The Cliche Song By Pat Nason (C) 2010 Verse One Life is what you make it And the best things in life are free Just do your damnedest, you're gonna make the grade You can't have your cake and eat it too And don't bite off more than you can chew And when life hands you a dilemma You just make-a dilemma-nade Chorus One And don't go for the big one every time Life's a b**h and then you die And pride always goes before the fall You know that you can't win 'em all Don't let your big ambition drive you blind And don't go for the big one every time Verse Two Keep your powder dry And keep your fingers crossed And don't burn that old candle at both ends There's no time like the present He who hesitates is lost So make every minute count Cause you won't pa** this way again Chorus Two And don't just sit there crying in your beer When you feel like you've had it up to here Just get right back up on your horse Say your prayers or use the force The day will surely come you'll need those tears Don't waste a one just crying in your beer Bridge Nothing lasts forever, that's the deal And you know what goes up, it must come down So save the drama for your mama And put your shoulder to the wheel This world may not be perfect But it's the only game in town Chorus Three And there's no need to bang your head against the wall You know it's all for one and one for all Don't carry more than you can hold And all that glitters is not gold Don't try to knock the cover off the ball And don't slam your head against the wall (Repeat Chorus One) And don't go for the big one every time Life's a b**h and then you die And pride always goes before the fall You know that you can't win 'em all Don't let your big ambition drive you blind And don't go for the big one every time Don't go for the big one every time Don't go for the big one every time
