Live And Learn Songtext
I came home in the morning and everything was gone

oh, what have I done!

I dropped dead in the hallway

cursing the dawn

oh come on sun, why must I burn?


I'm just trying to learn...



I stared into the light to kill some of my pain

it was all in vain, 'cause no senses remained

but an ache in my body

and regret on my mind

but I'll be fine 'cause



I live and I learn
yes, I live and I learn

if you live you will learn

and I live and I learn



got kicked in the head

so I started a fight

'cause I knew I was right

but I learned I was wrong

I remember a slaughter

I remember I fought for the money I'd brought



I got blistered and burned

and lost what I'd earned

but I lived and I learned

yes, I lived and I learned



I've got, I've got it now!

[she's got, she's got it now!]



I came to on a corner, with some help from a man

and goddamn, I don't seem to have learned

that a lady in need is guilty indeed

so I paid and got laid in return



and I don't know what I've learned...



well, you get what you give

and hell yes, I lived!

but if you live as you learn

I don't think I can learn



oh, with the sun in my eyes, surprise!

I'm living a life...

but I don't seem to learn

no, I don't think I can learn
