Lyrics

0:06YOLO you only live once
0:09The battle cry of a generation
0:12This life is a precious gift
0:15So don't get too crazy
0:16It's not worth the risk
0:18You know that we are still young
0:22So don't be dumb
0:25Don't trust anyone
0:28Cause you only live once
0:30Ugh you only live once
0:32That's the motto
0:33So take a chill pill
0:34Ease off the throttle
0:36Never go to loud clubs
0:37Cause it's bad for your ears
0:39Your friends will all be sorry
0:40When they can't hear
0:41And stay the hell away from drugs
0:43Cause they're not legal
0:44Then bury all your money in the backyard
0:47Like a beagle
0:47Cause you should never trust a bank
0:49They've been known to fail
0:50And never travel by car a bus
0:52Boat or by rail
0:53And don't travel by plane
0:55And don't travel at all
0:56Built a bomb shelter basement
0:58With titanium walls
1:00And wear titanium suits
1:01In case pianos fall on ya
1:03And never go in saunas
1:04Cause they're crawlin' with piranhas
1:06And never take the stairs
1:07Cause they're often unsafe
1:09You only live once
1:10Don'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
1:22Cause you only live once
1:24Yeah
1:25And here's another piece of advice
1:27Stay away from kids
1:28Cause their hair is filled with mad lice
1:30There's no such thing
1:31As too much Purell
1:33This a cautionary tale
1:34Word to George Orwell
1:35So don't 1980 force
1:37Any plugs into sockets
1:39Always wear a chastity belt
1:40And triple lock it
1:42Then hire a taster
1:43Make him check your food for poison
1:44And if you think your mailman is a spy
1:47Then destroy him
1:48No blankets or pajamas
1:48They can choke you in your sleep
1:51Two words about furniture
1:52Killing machines
1:54Board your windows up
1:55The sun is bad for your health
1:56And always wear a straight jacket
1:58So your safe from yourself
2:00Take no chances (no chances)
2:02Stop freelancin' (right now)
2:03Invest in your future
2:04Don't dilute your finances (uh huh)
2:06401K make sure it's low risk
2:09Then get some real estate (how much )
2:114 2% thirty year mortgage
2:13That's important that's a great deal
2:15And if you can't afford it
2:16Don't forge it on your last bill
2:18Renting is for suckers right now
2:20A dependable savings
2:21And you'll retire with money in your account
2:24Beast
2:24YOLO say no no
2:27Isolate yourself
2:29And just roll solo
2:31Be care-folo
2:33You oughta look out
2:35Also stands for YOLO
2:37You know that we are still young
2:40Burn the prints off your thumbs
2:43Then 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
2:52Cause you don't want to die die
2:54Just take our advice and hide
2:57And scream YOLO to the sky
3:01You oughta look out
YOLO  you only live once
The battle cry of a generation
This life is a precious gift
So don't get too crazy
It's not worth the risk
You know that we are still young
So don't be dumb
