Lyrics: Hlynur Júní Hallgrímsson & Óttar G. Birgisson
lyrics
Go forth, all ye sinners / Put your glasses down and calmly walk away / I am so much like you / I have squandered hopes and buried dreams for pay / But, if it’s money that you crave / For which to buy a fancy grave / Just remember kid, it’s all a game / Rise up, all as winners / As your sun rises, it sets on someone else / Rise up, but remember / That each sunrise is a sunset somewhere else / But there are memories to be made / Pictures drawn and music played / It’s a ride. No need to be afraid / But if it’s money that you crave / Be sure to buy a fancy grave / Let the future learn from your mistakes / There are memories to be made / Pictures drawn and music played / It’s a ride. No need to be afraid / But if it’s money that you crave / Be sure to buy a fancy grave / Let the future learn from your mistakes//
