This Is The Life

Living Colour

In another life

You might have been a genius

In another life

You might have been a star

In another life

Your face might have been perfect

In another life

You'd drive a better car



In another life

All your jokes are funny

In another life

Your heart is free from fear

In another life

You make a lot of money

In this other life

Everything is clear



In another life

You're always the hero

In another life

You always win the game

In another life

No one ever cheats you

In another life

You never have to change



In another life

Your friends never desert you

In another life

You never have to cry

In another life

No one ever hurts you

In this other life

Your loved-ones never die



But this is the life you have

This is the life you have

This is the life you have

This is the life



In another life

You're always the victim

In another life

You're always the thief

In another life

You are always lonely

In this other life

There is no relief



In your real life

Treat it like it's special

In your real life

Try to be more kind

In your real life

Think of those that love you

In this real life

Try to be less blind
