Lyrics for Facts of Life
Six billion ants crawling on a plate Six billion ants crawling on a plate None of them give back as much as they take Six billion ants crawling on a plate Doesn't mean you should, just because you can It doesn't mean you should just because you can Like Abraham and Ishmael fighting over sand It doesn't mean you should just because you can That is a fact of life That is a fact of life Now, some of us build and some of us teach Some of us build, some of us teach And some of us kill what some of us eat That is a fact of life That is a fact of life Nobody knows what happens when you die Nobody knows what happens when you die Believe what you want, it doesn't mean you're right That is a fact of life That is a fact
