[Verse 1]
Siren is bending, the radio is humming
The sun breaking through and the storm is coming
The score is obscure, the melody fractured
It went by my window, refused to be captured
I hope I wake up in time

[Verse 2]
Good King Neptune came flipping up my street
He was a sad case tripping up the staircase
Friends and relations are laughing at my head
Gathered like crows at the end of my bed
I hope I wake up in time

[Chorus]
If you can't, you can't quite
Think again, you can't fight
But you might not be smite
If it's wrong, it's not right
I say it once and I'll say it again
Now and forever and ever, amen

[Trumpet, Trombone, Baritone Saxophone, and Electric Guitar Solos]

[Verse 3]
The siren is bending, the radio is humming
Who do you love, who do you love now and who are you damning?
The score is obscure and the melody fractured
The bird by my window refused to be captured
I, I hope I wake up in time
[Chorus]
If you can, you can't quite
Think again, think again, think again, think again you can't fight
That you might not be smite
If it's wrong, if it's wrong, it's not right
I'll say it once and I'll say it again
Life is a beautiful thing

[Verse 1]
Siren is bending, the radio is humming
The sun breaking through and the storm is coming
The score is obscure and the melody fractured
It went by my window, refused to be captured
I hope I wake up in time

[Chorus]
If you can't, you can't quite
Think again, you can't fight
That you might not be smite
If it's wrong, it's not right
I say it once and I'll say it again
Life is a beautiful thing

[Outro]
I say it once and I'll say it again
Life is a beautiful thing
I said it before, I can't say it no more
Life is a beautiful thing
Life is a beautiful thing
Life is a beautiful thing
