What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Maybe life is curious to see what you would do
2
With the gift of being left alive
3
How love, how give
4
Spread the higher purpose
5
And cut through all the shuck and jive?
6
It’s only natural
7
Maybe superstitious to try and find
8
The meaning in beating the odds
9
Cause sometimes you gotta
10
(Get down on your knees)
11
Sometimes
12
(Could you get down on your knees?)
13
Sometimes baby
14
(You’d better get down on your knees)
15
And thank the whole wide universe of gods
16
For letting you
17
Live out the string a little longer boy
18
Raise your voice and make a joyful noise
19
Ain’t no guarantee of anything
20
Live out the string
21
Now that a meteorite has fallen in the chair
22
You just got out of to answer the phone
23
Will you live every moment
24
Like it just might be the last
25
Or will you still just bitch and moan?
26
Fate is kind
27
Fate is cruel
28
Fate is terminally cool
29
It’s a random interruption
30
In the middle of your groove
31
But sometimes
32
(Could you get down on your knees?)
33
Sometime
34
(Get down on your knees)
35
Sometimes baby
36
(Better get down on your knees)
37
And find yourself a deeper groove
38
Live out the string a little longer boy
39
Raise your voice and make a joyful noise
40
Ain’t no guarantee of anything
41
Live out the string
42
Who knows if we have angels on our shoulders?
43
That night with the devil in the street
44
Who knows if it means we’ve got more work to do but
45
Hey baby, don’t the air taste sweet?
46
Hey baby, don’t the air taste sweet?
47
Hey baby, don’t the air taste sweet?
48
(Get down on your knees)
49
(Get down on your knees)
50
(Get down on your knees)
51
And live out the string
52
Live out the string
53
(Get down on your knees)
54
(Get down on your knees)
55
Maybe life is curious to see what you would do
56
With the gift of being left alive
