Life is only what you make it out
It soon fades away
Look at all those movin' pictures
You take the good and bad 'cos life's all work and play
Oh no, oh oh no
We live, we die no one knows why
Oh no, oh oh no
Life is only a movin' picture
Life is only a moving picture
So make the verses rhyme and all the pieces fit
But then you make your choice so you must pay the price
Nothin' in life is a permanent fixture
We come, we go, we see the show
And it soon fades away
We come, we go we see the show
There isn't any time to make much sense of it
Oh, life can sometimes not be very nice
Black girls, white girls oh what a mixture
And it's always movin', always movin'
Oh no, oh oh no
We live, we die no one knows why
Oh no, oh oh no
Lookin' as pretty as a picture
And it's always movin', always movin'
Nothin' in life is a permanent fixture
