Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
I'm gonna make a chicken gumbo
Toss some sausage in the pot
I'm gonna flavor it with okra
Cheyenne pepper to make it hotYou know life is what we make of it
So beautiful or so what
I'm gonna tell my kids a bedtime story
A play without a plotWill it have a happy ending?
Maybe yeah, maybe not
I tell them life is what you make of it
So beautiful or so what
So beautiful, so beautiful, so whatI'm just a raindrop in a bucket, a coin in a slot
I am an empty house on Weed Street
Across the road from a vacant lot
You know life is what you make of it
So beautiful or so whatAin't it strange the way we're ignorant
How we seek out bad adviceHow we jigger it and figure it
Mistaking value for the price
And play a game with time and Love
Like a pair of rolling dice
So beautiful, so beautiful, so whatFour men on the balcony
Overlooking the parking lot
Pointing at a figure in the distance
Dr. King has just been shotAnd the sirens long melody
Singing savior pass me not
Ain't it strange the way we're ignorant
How we seek out bad advice
How we jigger it and figure itMistaking value for the price
And play a game with time and love
Like a pair of rolling dice
So beautiful, so beautiful, so what
