lyrics

Oh if my life was a movie
Edit a word or two, and you could show it in the afternoon
On Fox Family Channel

Oh if my life was to be seen
On HBO, the disclaimer would read:
"Adult Content
Adult Language
Brief Nudity"

You only get so long to learn how to speak
If you don't know by age 5, it's too late, I think
You'll never say a word

And so, too, have I reached an impasse
Gotta learn to love, gotta do it fast
Adult content, adult language, brief nudity

Don't wanna choose
Art over life
Don't wanna choose
Life over art
Won't you help my soul survive
My life?

Natural selection, well it's hit and miss
Why should a man like me look like this? It's ridiculous
Based on my IQ scores, I am a genius
But I'm 19 years old, and I've never had sex
Adult content, adult language, brief nudity

Don't wanna choose
Art over life
Don't make me choose
Life over art
Won't you help my soul survive
My life?

Oh if my life was a movie
I'd watch it everyday, but I bet most of you fools
Would just shut it off and walk away
