Lyrics

[Verse 1]
What is there left for me to do in this life?
Did I achieve what I had set in my sights?
Am I a happy man or is this sinking sand?
Was it all worth it, was it all worth it?
[Verse 2]
Yeah
Now hear my story
Let me tell you about it
[Verse 3]
We bought a drum kit, I blew my own trumpet
Playined the circuit, thought we were perfect
[Verse 4]
Was it all worth it?
Ooh, givin' all my heart and soul and stayin' up all night
Was it all worth it?
Ooh, living, breathing rock and roll, a godforsaken life
Was it all worth it, was it all worth it all these years?
[Verse 5]
Put down our money without counting the cost
It didn't matter if we won, if we lost
Yes, we were vicious, yes, we could kill
Yes, we were hungry, yes, we were brill
[Verse 6]
We served a purpose like a bloody circus
We were so dandy, we love you madly
[Verse 7]
Was it all worth it?
Living, breathing rock and roll, this godforsaken life
Was it all worth it, was it all worth it?
[Verse 8]
When the hurly-burly's done
[Verse 9]
We went to Bali, saw God and Dali
So mystic, surrealistic
[Verse 10]
Was it all worth it? Yeah, yeah
Givin' all my heart and soul and stayin' up all night
Was it all worth it?
Ooh, living, breathing rock and roll, this never ending fight
Was it all worth it, was it all worth it?
[Verse 11]
Yes, it was a worthwhile experience
It was worth it
