L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N

1. Lisa likes brandy and the way it hits her lips
She's a rock 'n' roll survivor with pendulum hips
She's got deep brown eyes
That've seen it all.

Working at a nightclub that was called The Avenue
The bar men used to call her "Little Lisa, Looney Tunes"
She went down on almost anyone.

From the hard time living 'til the Chelsea days
From when her hair was sweet blonde 'til the day it turned grey
She said.

[Chorus:]
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
You've got heart and your goin your own way
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N.
What you don't have now will come back again
You've got heart and your goin your own way.

2. Some people wear their history like a map on their face
And Joey was an artist just living out a case
But his best work was his letters home.

His standard works of fiction about imaginary success
When chorus girls in neon were his closest things to friends
But to a writer, the truth is no big deal.

From the hard time living to the sleepless nights
And the black and blue body from the weekend fights
He'd say.

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
On my last night on earth, I won't look to the sky
Just breathe in the air and blink in the light
On my last night on earth, I'd pay a high price
To have no regrets and be done with my life.

[Chorus]
