Living Like a Yo-yo

I was born, I was bred

I got cut and I bled

I worked hard, I got rich

I spent it all, life's a *****

Up and down

I been living like a yo-yo

Round and round

Should I stay or should I go?

You're flying high

Then you're deader than a dodo

This is what you find

When you're living like a yo-yo

Well I took tests, passed them all

I got four wheels, hit a wall

I got a band, we cut some tracks

Our only hit was death and tax

Up and down

I been living like a yo-yo

Round and round

Should I stay or should I go?

You're flying high

Then you're deader than a dodo

This is what you find

When you're living like a yo-yo

My confidence got chipped

My jeans got ripped

My dog got kicked

My stock has dipped

My record's skipped

My burger's flipped

This is it?

Up and down

I been living like a yo-yo

Round and round

Should I stay or should I go?

You're flying high

Then you're deader than a dodo

This is what you find

When you're living like a yo-yo

Up and down, round and round

Up and down, round and round

Up and down, round and round

Up and down, round and round

I went out to Alaska, I saw the Northern Lights

I came back home to London and I got into a fight

I took the train to Glasgow on the night my mother died

I've been around, I've been underground

Let's get out of here now
