A cover by Placebo of the 1985 single “Life’s What You Make It” by Talk Talk. It’s the title track of Placebo’s 2016 EP. The cover version features the harmonising parts “everyone’s all right” and “everything’s all right” more prominently, but stays true to the lyrics of the original.
[Verse 1]
Baby, life's what you make it
Can't escape it
Baby, yesterday's favourite
Don't you hate it
[Chorus]
(Everyone's all right)
Life's what you make it
(Everything's all right)
[Verse 2]
Baby, life's what you make it
Don't back date it
Baby, don't try to shade it
Beauty's naked
[Chorus]
(Everyone's all right)
Life's what you make it
(Everything's all right)
Life's what you make it
[Verse 3]
Baby, life's what you make it
Celebrate it
Anticipate it
Yesterday's faded
Nothing can change it
Life's what you make it
[Chorus]
(Everyone's all right)
Life's what you make it
(Everything's all right)
Life's what you make it
(Everyone's all right)
Life's what you make it
(Everything's all right)
Life's what you make it
(Everyone's all right)
Life's what you make it
(Everything's all right)
Life's what you make it
