Lyrics

In bad times, when it's dark and cold You got no place to rest your soul There's laughter behind your backs Then it seems the devil rules the deck Nothin' seems easy these days Or do I see it in a different way The world is spinnin', well that's OK Tell me baby what's the price we pay Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely Holy holy life, sometimes is sad Holy holy life, sometimes is phoney The sooner or later, they'll find you dead Why don't you take me down to a rabbit hole Where a man of peace can hide his soul Thinkin' about pollution and a birth-control Better talk to the rabbits, it's somebodies fault And maybe sometimes I'm pessimistic And maybe it ain't so bad, it ain't so sick I know I'm not the man of constant sorrow Ant tell me is it the path of evil to follow Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely Holy holy life, sometimes is sad Holy holy life, sometimes is phoney Or sooner or later, they'll find you dead Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely Sometimes is phoney, sometimes is sad Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely Sometimes is phoney, sometimes is sad, so sad Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely Sometimes is phoney, sometimes is sad, so so sad Holy, holy, holy
