If It Kills You Lyrics by Drive Like Jehu

Drive Like Jehu

1991

Your 47th birthday cake
Is peeing acid on your face
Light a candle
It won't light your fire
Every bad thing that you hate
Piling higher on your plate
If you ain't starving, you ain't satisfied
Learn to relax, if it kills you
You had your chance, hold on
'Cause it's gone
Learn to relax, if it kills you
You had your chance, hold on
'Cause it's gone
Sometimes I'm a mangler
Sometimes I sleep on it
Sometimes I'm a hamburger
Sometimes I dream of it
Learn to relax, if it kills you
You had your chance, hold on
'Cause it's gone
Learn to relax, if it kills you
You had your chance, hold on
'Cause it's gone
(Gone, all gone)
[Instrumental]
Learn to relax, if it kills you
You had your chance, hold on
'Cause it's gone
All gone
