Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It's late enough to go drivin'

And see what's mine

Life's the study of dyin'

How to do it right

You're a holy roller

If you're bettin' to lose

If you're hangin' around

I'm holdin' the noose

[Verse 2]

Come a little bit closer

And get untied

In the hearse rolling over

Just a track in the line, fuck it

[Verse 3]

Come on, let's go drivin'

Come on, let's take a little ride

That's the study of dyin'

How to do it right
