Lyrics
0:03Yolo
0:06Yolo
0:08You only live once
0:10The battle cry of a generation
0:12This life is a precious gift
0:15So don't get too crazy it's not worth the risk
0:19You know that we are still young
0:22So don't be dumb
0:25Don't trust anyone
0:28'Cause you only live once
0:31You only live once that's the motto
0:33So take a chill pill ease off the throttle
0:36Never go to loud clubs 'cause it's bad for your ears
0:39Your friends will all be sorry when they can't hear
0:42And stay the hell away from drugs 'cause they're not legal
0:45Then bury all your money in the backyard like a Beagle
0:48'Cause you should never trust a bank they've been known to fail
0:51And never travel by car or bus boat or by rail
0:54And don't travel by plane and don't travel at all
0:57Built a bomb shelter basement with titanium walls
1:00And wear titanium suits in case pianos fall on ya
1:03And never go in saunas 'cause they're crawling with piranhas
1:06And never take the stairs 'cause they're often unsafe
1:09You only live once don't let it go to waste
1:13You know that we are still young
1:16So hold off on the fun
1:19Cook your meat 'til it's done
1:22'Cause you only live once
1:25Yeah and here's another piece of advice
1:27Stay away from kids 'cause their hair is filled with mad lice
1:30There's no such thing as too much Purell
1:33This a cautionary tale word to George Orwell
1:36So don't 1984 us sending bugs into sockets
1:39Always wear a chastity belt and triple lock it
1:42Then hire a taster make him check your food for poison
1:45And if you think your mailman is a spy then destroy him
1:48No blankets or pajamas they could choke you in your sleep
1:51Two words about furniture: KILLING MACHINES
1:54Board your windows up the sun is bad for your health
1:57And always wear a strait jacket so you're safe from yourself
2:00Take no chances (no chances)
2:02Stop freelancing (right now)
2:03Invest in your future don't dilute your finances
2:06401K – make sure it's low risk
2:09Then get some real-estate (how much ) 4 2%
2:1230-year mortgage that's important that's a great deal
2:15And if you can't afford it don't forge it on your last bill
2:18Renting is for suckers right now
2:20A dependable savings and you'll retired with money in your account
2:24YOLO
2:25Say no no
2:27Isolate yourself
2:29And just roll solo be carefulo
2:33You ought to look out also stands for YOLO
2:37You know that we are still young
2:40Burn the prints off your thumbs
2:43And pull out all your teeth
2:46So you can't bite your tongue
2:48Only on this earth for a short time (time)
2:51So don't go outside if you don't wanna die (die)
2:55Just take our advice and hide
2:58And scream YOLO to the sky
3:02You ought to look out
