The Elixir by Grey Ghost Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everybody wanna stay young
Wear the make up, cos' they wanna be loved
Nobody wanna die, get a slice of the devil's pie
And we can all just get in line
"one drop we can live forever"
Sip the elixir, hit the mixture
Everybody want a little more then they got
But when they stop, they can't chew what they've bitten off
In a world full of greed, we want more then we need
All that we see, on the colour tv, stuck on repeat
?? sucker like me, warning, danger danger
You can get stuck in the lake of fire
Take the higher road to hell's kitchen and
If you see the devil then don't listen
[Hook]
The elixir
I know you want it
The elixir
So come and get it
The elixir
And I can show you, what the world looks like in the future
[Verse 2]
Forever is a long long time
Life goes on like when Bon Scott died
Now you want a non stop ??
Shout it at the sky sayin' "you want what's mine"
Curiousity killed the cat
I'm sure you'd take it back and wish for the bitch back
Life is a game like tic tac toe
Death is the same but you missed that boat
Everybody wanna live longer
Nobody wanna be six feet under
"Everybody wanna be above the ground
When the sun is out or if it's thunderclouds"
And yo I can't get no like the rolling stones
God's upstairs sayin' "told you so"
We're down here sayin' "hold up yo"
Didn't know what we signed up for
[Hook: x2]
I know you want to live forever so
Turn me up in your stereo
I can show you if you want to know
What the world looks like in the future
The elixir
I know you want it
The elixir
So come and get it
The elixir
And I can show you, what the world looks like in the future
Everybody wanna stay young
Wear the make up, cos' they wanna be loved
Nobody wanna die, get a slice of the devil's pie
And we can all just get in line
"one drop we can live forever"
Sip the elixir, hit the mixture
Everybody want a little more then they got
But when they stop, they can't chew what they've bitten off
In a world full of greed, we want more then we need
All that we see, on the colour tv, stuck on repeat
?? sucker like me, warning, danger danger
You can get stuck in the lake of fire
Take the higher road to hell's kitchen and
If you see the devil then don't listen
[Hook]
The elixir
