(Da-da-da)
(Where the Sun don't shine)
Hey pal, hey friend, hey buddy
Why so sad, so downright unhappy?
That's not my cup of tea
You know that this could be your last day here on earth
So buddy, please, won't you smile just for me?
My dear, my dear, no, you don't have to cry
That ain't a pretty legacy to leave behind
Stop and smell the roses while you've got the time
Pretty soon, you'll be pushin' up daisies where the Sun don't shine
Pretty soon, I'll be pushin' up daisies where the Sun don't shine
(My dear, my dear, no, you don't have to cry)
(That ain't a pretty legacy to leave behind)
(Stop and smell the roses while you've got the time)
(Pretty soon, you'll be pushin' up daisies where the Sun don't shine)
You know, I just gotta say
That you might not have a lotta time to waste
So lose that long face
None of us are here to stay
So treat every day like it's a holiday
Until the day you slip away
My dear, my dear, no, you don't have to cry
That ain't a pretty legacy to leave behind
Stop and smell the roses while you've got the time
Pretty soon, you'll be pushin' up daisies where the Sun don't shine
(Ha)
(My dear, my dear, no, you don't have to cry)
(It ain't a pretty legacy to leave behind)
(Stop and smell the roses while you got the time)
(Pretty soon, you'll be pushin' up daisies where the Sun don't shine)
Pretty soon, you'll be pushin' up daisies where the Sun don't shine
