The Way Things Work lyrics

Everybody wants to live forever Nobody really wants to die They say that when you're gone Your soul will carry on. I don't much believe that but I'll try Everybody wants to make money We all work all our lives for that dime At a job that we hate Until the day that we get paid It sounds like an enormous waste of time. But God knows I'll still try Everybody wants to be famous Everybody wants their name in lights i am no exception I crave that recognition I hope that I get it before I die I hope I get it before I die
