story behind the song: interesting movie "the bucket list" so i went just suppose ...
Lyrics
when i was born, it was to die
sooner or later anyway
no time to worry, no time to cry
never was time to waste
take things easy, take things slow
all that matter's is today
the birds will sing, roosters crow
and there's a brand new day
i've got a lot of listening to do
one or two things left to write
a life to live cause its not through
at least not yet tonight
haven't read my obituary yet
or heard that fat lady sing
me and the door mouse, or is it field i forget
and that bucket list of dreams
methinks me needs a bucket list
if i really had a bucket list
you'd be on top
i mean, you'd be at the top of it
the bucket list that is
that doesn't sound quite right either
maybe a little freudian slip there
slip of the tongue
fingers
whatever
what's a bucket list anyway
a things to do list
thinking out loud here again
does that include people?
if it does ...
yeah if it does
then you would be right
at the top
