Before you, she was a pitbull, now she's more like mercury
Or the shadow of an olive branch
by the river in the liminal valley
These days you do your best to pretend you're friends
A monolithic double fantasy
Trip down city pavement, unleash yourself
Before you fool her of what you can be

Do it 'fore you're dead, do it 'fore you're dead
Success as sweet as expired candy
Do it 'fore you're dead, lead bеfore you're lead
Footstеps of a perfect fantasy

And the sun came up between the traffic
Bending images of light and static
But she'll be there when it really matters
As the rose climbs the coloured lattice
And these days you try and avoid the noise
But as if you had a choice with those boys
With those boys
And we will

Do it 'fore you're dead, do it 'fore you're dead
Success as sweet as expired candy
Do it 'fore you're dead, lead before you're lead
Success as sweet as expired candy, we will
Do it 'fore you're dead, do it 'fore you're dead
Success as sweet as expired candy, we will

In this great night, I will tremble
In this great night, will quake
And as she lies there, I lie awake
Yeah, in this great night, she will tremble, and here I wait

Lovers past their best before
Do it 'fore you're dead
do it 'fore you're dead, do it 'fore you're dead
A sugar rush that rubs you raw
Do it 'fore you're dead
do it 'fore you're dead, do it 'fore you're dead
Heart breaks, tooth will shatter
Do it 'fore you're dead
do it 'fore you're dead, do it 'fore you're dead
But she'll be there when it truly matters
Do it 'fore you're dead, do it 'fore you're dead
