EXPERATION DATES Verse We all gotta go sometime Like Otis Redding crashing into the bay, like Buddy Holly falling outta the sky Like a scared man pleading “don’t let me die” We all gotta go sometime Verse The good and the bad, all gotta go Hitler and Ghandi, Curly Larry and Moe Whether yer coarse or oh so fine We all gotta go sometime Chorus The deal is we got expiration dates We’re just like the trees, we got the same fate Whether yer high or whether yer low Someday, sometime, we all gotta go Verse As you grow older there’re fewer roles Whether ingénue or handsome stud As you get older you learn the ropes Of getting used to the loss of hope. The deal is we got expiration dates We’re just like flowers, we got the same fate Whether yer high or whether yer low Someday, sometime, we all gotta go Verse You know from the day you are born You know for sure you’ll hear the horns Blown by angels or the devil to all Because sooner or later we all gotta fall We all gotta go sometime Like Otis Redding crashing into the bay, like Buddy Holly falling outta the sky Like john Lennon pleading “don’t let me die” We all gotta go sometime The deal is we got expiration dates We’re just like every living thing, we got the same fate Whether yer high or whether yer low Someday, sometime, we all gotta go
