Stay cool, just carry on
You can't live for anyone else
So don't you believe all you read in the headlines
Nobody gonna live your life for you
Live life
Trendy intellectuals always take action
Carry on, it's all you can do
Oh, life's a mother
For every cause that's ever been in fashion
And see the crooked politicians and the unemployment queues
Out of work executives are killing themselves
You gotta live life, that's all you do
Oh, life's a mother
You gotta live life
It's only life, it's really fine
Keep your head, keep a hold
You can't pretend there's nothing wrong
Weekend revolutionaries protest and sing
Don't get depressed when you read in the press
You can't live life for anyone else
About world revolution and social unrest
You gotta live life, that's all you do
Don't panic, don't lose control
You gotta live life, that's all you do
You gotta live life, that's all you do
Live life
You can't live for anyone else
Nobody gonna live your life for you
Oh, life's a mother
You gotta live life for yourself
You gotta live life for yourself
Try not to panic when you switch on the news
They got every solution for every revolution
You gotta live life
It's not the end so just carry on
You gotta live life
Because they're dedicated followers of any old thing
You gotta live life
Then they salute the union jack
Live life, see it through
Oh, life's a mother
Can't live life for anyone else
You gotta live life
Nobody gonna live your life for you
Act normal, there's nothing wrong
You gotta live life be yourself
Nobody gonna live your life for you
They live in the slums just like the poor people do
And the IRA are killing everybody else
Right wing fascists beat up the blacks
But they'd rather sniff coke instead of glue
You gotta live life for yourself
