It's a pleasure to be hereAll it takes to love oneself
Just switch it off, put all cares aside
And don't deny it, life is quiet
What a charmingPick yourself up off the shelf
'Cause who can tell, you're such a pretty sight
Beautiful, sensational
A hit in black and whiteBefore you know
You could be the queen of the nation
Queen of the nation
Before you know it
Life is flashing before you
Flashing before youIt's a pleasure to be here
And an honor to meet you
We only have one life
This is not a rehearsalBlink and it's over
Life is a riot
We only have one life
This is not a rehearsalGentle believer
How deep is your faith?
Tomorrow may come
And sweep you awayThere is no sense in suicide
To be a bomb, an Anglo-Russian spy
A great defector, love detector
Multi-racialGravitate and float on out
Be a kid, what else is there to be?
'Cause life's a riot, don't deny it
Technicolor dreamWhile we are walking
Through the rain and the thunder
Rain and the thunder
Before you know it
Life is flashing before you
Flashing before youIt's a pleasure to be here
And an honor to meet you
We only have one life
This is not a rehearsalBlink and it's over
Life is a riot
We only have one life
This is not a rehearsalIt's a pleasure to be hereGentle believer
How deep is your faith?
Tomorrow may come
And sweep you away
