Life Sentence Lyrics

The song Life Sentence is performed by Dead Kennedys in the album named Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death in the year 2001 .

You used to be a partner in crime
Now you say you ain't go the time
Gotta get serious, gotta plan
Gotta pa*s those entrance exams

Oh my God
It's senior year
All you care about is your career

It's a life sentence
It's a life sentence
It's a life sentence
It's a life sentence

You're squelching your emotions
All you talk about is old times
You don't do what you want to
But you do the same thing everyday

No sense of humor
But such good manners
Now you're an adult
You're boring

It's your life sentence
It's your life sentence
It's your life sentence
It's your life sentence

The walls are closing in
You stayed too long in school
I'd rather stay a child
And keep my self-respect
It being an adult
Means being like you

Are you really you you you
you you you you you you
Are you really you?
No

You're a chained-up dog in a yard
Don't see much, you can't go far
Pace and froth, you're getting sick
Run too fast it'll snap your neck

You say you'll break out
But you never do
You're just another ant in the hill
That's your life sentence
