Just One Lifetime (feat. Shaggy)

Sting

Intro: The time has come, the world has said To talk of many things Of ships and shoes and sealing wax Of cabbages and kings Life a the greatest gift given to humanity Surround yourself with a lot a positive energy Yuh caan buy it even if yuh have wull heap a money A das why we spread love ina the community Yuh coulda be small man or a celebrity Yuh coulda live uptown or di ina city Wi need a world full peace and serenity Sting come sing out fi everybody The time has come, as Shaggy said To talk of many things Of ships and shoes and sealing wax Of cabbages and kings The planets tune in retrograde The moon seems to have fled The world is spinning upside down And landed on its head Just one lifetime And there's only one, yes there's only one Just one life to live Assuming that we'll make it We've no choice but to take it I'm with you, the Walrus said We'll dress for heavy weather Whatever's on the road ahead We're in this now together We thought we'd make a run for it Not knowing where we're headed We packed the car with both our bags And filled her up unleaded Just one lifetime And there's only one, yes there's only one Just one life to live Assuming that we'll make it We've no choice but to take it Come Meck wi Teck a page out a di book of life Lego negativity and do what's right Wi no longer need fi a fuss or fight Unite the world an show dem di right Dis generation a set a new trend Replace di word enemy wid friend Leaders a di world these rules can't bend Dis a di message wi send to dem The time had come, a reckoning We all knew it was coming We headed North on empty roads The engine gently humming The Walrus smoked a cigarette He claimed it was his last No signs of life, no gas, no food In all the empty towns we passed All we have is me and you It has to be enough I've got your back and you've got mine If the going it gets rough Chorus Just one lifetime And there's only one, yes there's only one Just one life to live Assuming that we'll make it We've no choice but to take it The time has come, the Walrus said To talk of many things Of ships and shoes and sealing wax Of cabbages and kings
