how long you wanna live anyway

Well it's no good to smoke and it's no good to drink
What the hell you're doing boy don't you never ever think
Well you're killing yourself man and you're just a kid
So you better slow down or you wish that you did

Maybe I'll only last a year and a day, but
How long you wanna live anyway

Well I just don't care and I just can't be bothered
Well I'm sick of taking crap from my mother and my father
Well I'm looking real cool my hair all grease
Well there ain't no way I'm gonna live like a priest

Maybe I'll only last a year and a day, but
How long you wanna live anyway

Well you're growing old man and you ain't having no fun
Well I'm still young and I'm getting me some
Well you can hide away and you can live like a munk
And I'll be a low down dirty skunk

Maybe I'll only last a year and a day
Maybe I'll only last a year and a day
Maybe I'll only last a year and a day, but
Like how long you wanna live anyway
