Death Is Certain - Iggy Pop

Death is the best

Better than all the rest

On the dutiful lies in the rock paradise

Losses and wear and the texture of age

Adds a truth to the heart

And a light to the face

Itў‚¬"ўs good when you donў‚¬"ўt give as

Much of a fuck

As you did when the threats mount

To make you suck

A burst of rage

A lively cry

Emotions wide

Your death is certain for sure

My death is certain alright

But death is certain no cure

ў‚¬њCause death is certain

ў‚¬њCause death is certain so why?

Gotta diiiiiiiiie

A bone and a skull

In a conjugal hell

A mall full of gall

And the music jerks off

Pale and fate

At the table they sat

With their necks choking tight

In their collars dead white

Liquor and food ў‚¬њtill

They spin and explode

In a shower of crap

In Americaў‚¬"ўs lap

A plicemanў‚¬"ўs numb

A lazy bum

Emotions come

ў‚¬њCause death is certain itў‚¬"ўs sure

ў‚¬њCause death is certain itў‚¬"ўs pure

ў‚¬њCause death is certain no cure

ў‚¬њCause death is certain

ў‚¬њCause death is certain thatў‚¬"ўs why

Gotta die

Alright

Alright

Well, alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

A beast with legs

A kid whoў‚¬"ўs numb

A lazy bum

Your death is certain itў‚¬"ўs sure

ў‚¬њCause death is certain itў‚¬"ўs pure

ў‚¬њCause death is certain no cure

ў‚¬њCause death is certain
