Lyrics

[Intro: Dudley Perkins] To be a memory is what we're all thinkin' Some die on the week, most die on the weekend Couldn't close your mouth, you just kept on speakin' And now your body's leakin' [Verse 1: Metropolis] There's a million ways to die so choose one Death squad shoot gun, execution Train track stroll, that's electrocution One too many hits on the pipe, that's you done You can drink-drive, till you swerve and crash Or fuck around with no johnny, hit that murder gash And that's real Earthquakes could have you buried in rubble Have you running from the light at the end of the tunnel See there's no trying to elude the hands of fate When the time comes for funeral plans and ways to say "The good die young, so live life to the fullest" Third degree burns, stab wounds and stray bullets Natural causes or gang land forfeits Surrounded by family or 'lone on the coarse grit We start dying on the day that we're born But there's no "rest in peace" when your soul's been torn [Chorus: Dudley Perkins] To be a memory is what we're all seeking Some die on the week, most die on the weekend Couldn't close your mouth, you just kept on speakin' And now your body's leakin', yeah To be a memory is what we're all seeking Some die on the week, most die on the weekend Couldn't close your mouth, you just kept on speakin' And now your body's leakin' [Verse 2: Dudley Perkins] There are one million ways to die so choose one You could be hung, cancer in the lung Brains blown out by one that's young So you can expire, so you can be done Skin lesion from the sun Car crashes, your life flashes in front of your face Swallowed a drink that was laced Life can be one big waste Being the wrong race at the right time or wrong place By the hands of man, it's all a part of God's plan Some die quick, some die in quicksand Always sinkin', dirty, rotten and stinkin' [Refrain: Dudley Perkins] There are one million ways to die, describe one There are one million ways to die, describe one [Verse 3: Orifice Vulgatron] Ya, you could get juxed coming back from the shops Or even have your days numbered at the hands of a cop You only live once, so choose life or move righteous One false move and that shit could leave you lifeless A few sips deep, car keys, no need to mention Certain people need to put their friends to sleep to learn the lesson Bruv, it's a strange world, who knows why we're even here But I'ma keep believin' till I leave this here sphere See, there's one million ways to die so choose one But I'ma choose six and roll the dice for pure fun So who's dumb? Most keep their heads in the air I say you die the day you let yourself surrender to the fear Has it ever been clear? Our father says that we've been scorned About the fact we start to die the very day that we were born So praise be your glory, end of story, close the casket Cos even if we learn to love, we die from broken hearts [Chorus: Dudley Perkins] To be a memory is what we're all seeking Some die on the week, most die on the weekend Couldn't close your mouth, you just kept on speakin' And now your body's leakin' To be a memory is what we're all seeking Some die on the week, most die on the weekend Couldn't close your mouth, you just kept on speakin' And now your body's leakin' [Verse 4: Dudley Perkins] Death from assault, and it wasn't your fault Death from one insult Death can be bought for less than ten G's Bombs over Baghdad overseas Tupac and Biggie's death You're in your last breath, no more movement, no life left See? Coffins come in all sizes and shapes The hands of time is all that it takes One false move is all that it takes Loved ones crying at your wake, for goodness' sakes (My boy!) When your heart stops and your body drops into the ground Look how all stand around not knowin' Not knowin'... [Outro: Dudley Perkins] There are one million ways to die, describe one There are one million ways to die, describe one To be a memory is what we're all seeking Some die on the week, most die on the weekend Couldn't close your mouth, you just kept on speakin' And now your body's leakin' There are one million ways to die, describe one You could be hung, you could be hung Cancer in the lung, cancer in the lung Car crashes, drug overdoses Murder War is a big one, that's right Anybody else got any suggestions about death? How about suicide? How about, just...
