Life Sentence Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You used to be a partner in crime
Now you say you ain’t got the time
Gotta get serious, gotta plan
Gotta pass those entrance exams
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh my God, it’s your senior year
All you care about is your career
[Chorus]
It’s your life sentence, life sentence
Life sentence, life sentence
[Verse 2]
You’re squelching your emotions
All you talk about is old times
You don’t do what you want to
But you do the same thing every day
[Pre-Chorus]
No sense of humor but such good manners
Now you’re an adult, you’re boring
[Chorus]
It’s your life sentence, life sentence
Life sentence, life sentence
See Dead Kennedys Live
Get tickets as low as $40

[Post-Chorus]
The walls are closing in
You stayed too long in school
[Bridge 1]
I’d rather stay a child and keep my self-respect
If being an adult means being like you
[Interlude]
Ah, ah
[Bridge 2]
Are you really you, you, you?
You, you, you, you, you, you
Are you really you? No!
[Verse 3]
You’re a chained-up dog fenced in a yard
Don’t see much, you can’t go far
Pace and forth, you’re getting sick
Run too fast and it’ll snap your neck
[Pre-Chorus]
You say you’ll break out but you never do
You’re just another ant in the hill
[Chorus]
It’s your life sentence, life sentence
Life sentence, life sentence
Life sentence, life sentence
Life sentence
