Once In A Lifetime

Once In A Lifetime - Philip Bailey

Lyrics by：Brian Eno/David Byrne/Chris Frantz/Tina Weymouth/Jerry Harrison

Composed by：Brian Eno/David Byrne/Chris Frantz/Tina Weymouth/Jerry Harrison

You may find yourself living

In a shotgun shack

And you may find yourself in another part

Of the world

And you may find yourself behind the wheel

Of a large automobile

You may find yourself in a beautiful house

With a beautiful wife

You may ask yourself

Well how did I get here

Letting the days go by

Let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by

Water flowing underground

Into the blue again

After the money's gone

Once in a lifetime

Water flowing underground

And you may ask yourself

How do I work this

And you may ask yourself

Where is that large automobile

And you may tell yourself

This is not my beautiful house

And you may tell yourself

This is not my beautiful wife

Letting the days go by

Let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by

Water flowing underground

Into the blue again

After the money's gone

Once in a lifetime

Water flowing underground

Same as it ever was

Same as it ever was

Same as it ever was

As the same

Letting the days go by

Let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by

Water flowing underground

Into the blue again

After the monkeys gone

Once in a lifetime

Water flowing underground

And you may ask yourself

What is that beautiful house

And you may ask yourself

Where does that highway go to

And you may ask yourself

Am I right or am I wrong

And you may say to yourself

My God

Letting the days go by

Let the water hold me down

Letting the days go by

Water flowing underground

Into the blue again

After the money's gone

Once in a lifetime

Same as it ever was

Same as it ever was

Same as it ever was

Same as it ever was

Same as it ever was

Same as it ever was

Same as it ever was

Same as it ever was

Is the same as it ever was

Same as it ever was

Same as it ever was

Is the same as it ever was
