Yolo Songtext
von The Lonely Island

YOLO
YOLO, you only live once
The battle cry of a generation
This life is a precious gift
So don′t get too crazy
It's not worth the risk

You know that we are still young
So don′t be dumb
Don't trust anyone
'Cause you only live once

Ugh, you only live once
That′s the motto
So take a chill pill
Ease off the throttle

Never go to loud clubs
′Cause it's bad for your ears
Your friends will all be sorry
When they can′t hear


And stay the hell away from drugs
'Cause they′re not legal
Then bury all your money in the backyard
Like a beagle

'Cause you should never trust a bank
They′ve been known to fail
And never travel by car, a bus
Boat or by rail

And don't travel by plane
And don't travel at all
Build a bomb shelter basement
With titanium walls

And wear titanium suits
In case pianos fall on ya
And never go in saunas
′Cause they′re crawlin' with piranhas

And never take the stairs
′Cause they're often unsafe
You only live once
Don′t let it go to waste


You know that we are still young
So hold off on the fun
Cook your meat 'til it′s done
'Cause you only live once

Yeah
And here's another piece of advice
Stay away from kids
′Cause their hair is filled with mad lice

There′s no such thing
As too much Purell
This a cautionary tale
Word to George Orwell

So don't 1980 force
Any plugs into sockets
Always wear a chastity belt
And triple lock it

Then hire a taster
Make him check your food for poison
And if you think your mailman is a spy
Then destroy him

No blankets or pajamas
They can choke you in your sleep
Two words about furniture
Killing machines

Board your windows up
The sun is bad for your health
And always wear a strait jacket
So you′re safe from yourself

Take no chances (No chances)
Stop freelancin' (Right now)
Invest in your future
Don′t dilute your finances (Uh huh)

401K, make sure it's low risk
Then get some real estate (How much?)
4.2% 30-year mortgage
That′s important, that's a great deal
And if you can't afford it
Don′t forge it on your last bill

Renting is for suckers right now
A dependable savings
And you′ll retire with money in your account
Beast

YOLO, say no-no
Isolate yourself
And just roll solo
Be care-folo
You oughta look out
Also stands for YOLO

You know that we are still young
Burn the prints off your thumbs
Then pull out all your teeth
So you can't bite your tongue
Only on this Earth for a short time, time
So don′t go outside, 'cause you don′t want to die, die
Just take our advice and hide
And scream YOLO to the sky
You oughta look out
