special someone out on a date
And tell them how you feel
You talk about your projects
You don't use the living room
where the kids can't play
And read the books on the shelf
Or take off that sofa cover
It'll all be over before you know it
Life's way too short to say things for good
So do what you say you will,
not what you think you should.
It's fleeting and fragile.
Serve burgers on your china.
It's hard to leave a job,
It's tough to sit and update
You might make a bucket list,
And say you're gonna save it
You could forgive someone,
but instead you just wait
to tell them what you wanted to say
You know you'll look back
to set the record straight
It'll all be over before you know it,
so bite those wicks and keep
so do what you say you will,
not what you think you should.
it's fleeting and fragile,
for vacations and travel.
Serve burgers on your china
There's no need to burn bridges
So don't get carried away
But you can get out that old guitar
There's still time to learn how to play
You don't have to go crazy
and cash in all your stocks
But you can wear that new
you've never taken out of the
It'll all be over before you know it,
so do what you say you will,
not what you think you should.
it's fleeting and fragile,
Serve burgers on your china
And don't forget to burn your candles
Put on your best pair of underwear
you've stored away since 1994
then why not take a gamble?
Don't be afraid to hit the slots
Serve burgers on your china
And don't forget to burn your candles
