Grab Life Lyrics[Verse 1]
There's a man called Jack, lives down my road
He built a house with his own hands
Bricks and sand can make a home
I wanna build a house like Jack
Then there's Irene from next door
She survived the Second World War
Raised six children on her own
I wanna be brave like Irene
[Pre-Chorus]
Some things you can't control
How am I supposed to know
What I should be keeping close
And what I should let go
Maybe it's not worth the worry
[Chorus]
Grab life
In between the teeth
'cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed
Take a bite
There's a feast for you to eat
'cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed
[Verse 2]
No space in this town for me to breathe
I've had enough and I want to leave
Said Lucy, sat by the river
Eating chips, wishing she was thinner
Oh mom, I've let you down
I wanna be friends with the family now
But is goes so quick
And in a blink
It could all go down the bathroom sink
[Chorus]
Grab life
In between the teeth
'cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed
Take a bite
There's a feast for you to eat
'cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed
[Bridge]
Irene
[Chorus]
Grab life
In between the teeth
'cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed
Take a bite
There's a feast for you to eat
'cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed
[Outro]
There's a man called Jack, lives down my road
He built a house with his own hands
Bricks and sand can make a home
I wanna build a house like Jack
