Lyrics

Never trust a white man, never kill a Jew Never sign a contract, never rent a pew All the world's a stage, and me & you are the players Never write for magazines, never scratch your hives Never get in politics, never go to war All the world's a stage, and me & you are the players Laugh at the world that's leaving you, we can wait below Sing and the hills will answer, don't sigh when you're lost for words Some say the world will end in fire Some say the world will end in ice From what I've tasted of desire, I do favour fire But don't be afraid to play your part, so go play your part Never marry whores, never pay a blackmailer Never go to law, never trust a dealer Succeed and guilt, 'cause it will help you live All your friends will leave you, all your friends will die You will be remembered I have no doubt, you'll join them in the sky Laugh at the world that's leaving you, we can wait below Sing and the hills will answer, don't sigh when you're lost for words Some say the world will end in fire Some say the world will end in ice From what I've tasted of desire, I do favour fire But don't be afraid to play your part If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, ooh And if you can walk with kings and don't lose common touch You'll be a man, you'll be a man my son Some say the world will end in fire Some say the world will end in ice From what I've tasted of desire, I do favour fire But don't be afraid to play your part, so go play your part Play your part, play your part
