Sometimes you gotta laugh,
otherwise you're gonna cry
Sometimes you gotta whisper,
Sometimes you just smile and say,
She said live a little, love a little, laugh a lot,
So far it hasn't stopped,
the moon affects the oceans
And the oceans make the beaches
one of them made it onto land
Slowly but surely turned into a man
Now here I am, three billion years later
Waiting in the queue at my local
Marvelling over the choice of pastries
The girl behind the counter
While I'm daydreaming about life itself
I said don't mind me, help yourself
You gotta reach into your
Because in your soul lies a
She said, do you want it in small,
It's a rollercoaster ride
Keep your eye on the horizon
Keep your feet on the ground
And keep on smiling cause
And where do you think we're gonna be
three billion years from now
When the ro bots kill the humans
Artificial intelligence ventures into space
And survives a lot longer
than this solar system does
They understand black holes,
Computers that are cleverer
than we could ever comprehend
They are alive, invented by humans
But they invented their own language
And deemed us insignificant
three billion years from now
In the arse end of the galaxy,
the girl behind the counter
and I snap out of my futuristic fantasy
I ask if I could have a splash of almond milk
You know me, I like to do my bit
It's a steak and kidney pie
Take the rough with the smooth
But don't stand in the cold
Come in, come on, smile and say
Sometimes you gotta laugh
Otherwise you're gonna cry
Sometimes you gotta whisper
Sometimes you just smile and say
