Life’s a Ball (While It Lasts) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Right now, you're having a real good time
(Real good time)
Enjoying the worldly things that to love you're blind
(So blind)
But all your good times (Ooh ooh)
Are one day gonna play out (Ooh ooh)
Leaving you with just yesterday (Ooh ooh)
Not knowing what today is all about 'cause

[Chorus]
(Life's a ball while it lasts)
But the good times go so fast
And when the music stops
(We'll still be on the top)

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, to you, life's a party
(It has no end) Has no end
It's just a first-rate masquerade
(Just a masquerade for your so-called friends)
Ahh, yeah
Wait till you find yourself (Ooh ooh)
With your back up against the wall (Ooh ooh)
It won't be easy reaching a friend (Ooh ooh)
When there's no real friend to call

[Chorus]
(Life's a ball while it lasts)
But the good times go so fast
And when the music stops
(We'll still be on the top)

[Verse 3]
Oh! How I want you, but you're losin' me
'Cause you're all wrapped up
(Wrapped up in all you see)
Ahh, yeah
My love for you (Ooh ooh)
Has really turned south (Ooh ooh)
But when they're gone, you'll be all alone (Ooh ooh)
There'll be no more good times left

[Chorus]
(Life's a ball while it lasts)
But the good times go so fast
And when the music stops
(We'll still be on the top)

[Outro]
(Life's a ball while it lasts)
But the good times go so fast
And when the music stops
(We'll still be on the top)
Oh! (Life's a ball while it lasts)
But the good times go so fast
