lyrics

You are the mountain lion
you gotta go where the money is
you never know what you will find
you gotta go where the money is

You are the businessman
you gotta go for the easy kill
and don’t expect them to understand
you gotta go for the easy kill

Can you wait until the summer? you can die and you’ll be warm
if you put your arms around me, we can make it through the storm
please don’t die
please don’t die
please don’t die
please don’t die

Life is a miracle
but I never had the time to live
taking everything I could
I didn’t know I had so much to give

Give thanks to the sunlight and the ground you’re standing on
cause life is just a feeling for a moment and it’s gone
please don’t die
please don’t die
please don’t die

can you wait until the summer? you can die and you’ll be warm
if you put your arms around me we can make it through the storm
please don’t die
please don’t die
please don’t die
please don’t die
please don’t die
no
