Once In A Lifetime by Earthsuit Lyrics

Same as it ever was
Same as it ever was

You may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
You may find yourself in another part of the world
You may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
You may say to yourself, "My God, what have I done?"

You may ask yourself, "Where are the kittens that I paid for?
Why am I paying commodities to dogs in sweaters?"
You may find yourself playing tennis with Boris Yeltsin
You may say to yourself, "My God, what have I done?"

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing under

Water dissolving and water removed
There is water at the bottom of the ocean
There is water in the kitchen sink, and in the bathtub too
There is water in the Pacific, it is green and blue
You may ask yourself, "Why am I licking stamps when there is no postage require, my God?

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground

Well I want you to know that once in a lifetime
You wake up and you realise it's all the same
Is that no good?
