Like a thief in the night it came
To claim the one
Whose time it was at last
Or maybe more suddenly than that
In this room where you find life
You also find death
Don't go cryin' though no no
Save your breath
La da da da da da da da da da
La da da da da da da da da da
Like a thief in the night it came
For the young and the old the same
And it comes for the ready
Just the same as it comes for the unready
In this room where death comes
You plead for just one more day
But it doesn't make a difference and
You watch you're whole life just slip away
In this room where you found life
You also found death
Don't go cryin' though no no
Save your last breath
How can anybody justify the grind
When they know it's just a matter of time
Work on, work on then
It's just a matter of time
Make a lot of money, buy a lot of things
For the ones you leave behind
La da da da da da da da da da
La da da da da da da da da da
Like a thief in the night it came
For the young and the old the same
And it comes for the ready
Just the same as it comes for the unready
La da da da da da da da da da
La da da da da da da da da da
Like a thief in the night it came
For the young and the old the same
And it comes for the ready
Just the same as it comes for the unready
