lyrics

(D It’s the weirdest times we’ve had / Long as we have been alive
Almost seems like yes…terday / When We’d go to work, then play
We could go just any place / Meet someone in any space
Travel far and meet a friend / Never thought that this would end. [pause]
1/2 CHORUS: C
(G) Now it is the weirdest / Time to keep on living
Takes up all our courage / Have some fun try to survive —
VERSE
—Now we know that we could die, / May as well get high high high
Travel into fantasy / Take us where our dreams will fly
Now we know that we could die / Living ‘neath a Liquid Sky
Don’t get close to anyone / Even ‘neath the blazing sun —>
CHORUS: C
Now it is the weirdest / Time to keep on living
Takes up all our courage / Have some fun try to survive —
Now it is the strangest / time to keep on living
Take what life is giving / Do your work and don’t give up, Don’t give up — No No
VERSE:
Take a walk when skies are blue / Far from those approaching you
Beauties that are passing by / their very breath can make you die
Stay inside and work and smile / Work on projects, rest a while
Pet the cat, Reflect…, and think / Capture thoughts with pen and ink (pause)
CHORUS:
Now it is the weirdest / Time to keep on living
Takes up all our courage / Have some fun try to survive —
Now it is the strangest / time to keep on living
Take what life is giving / Do your work and don’t give up, Don’t give up — No No
