Dyin's Gonna Be the Death of Me

They tell us we can't eat this
They tell us we can't eat that
If we don't walk three miles a day
There's never gonna be a way

For us to live a long life
A meaningful and full life
If we don't follow certain rules
Most parroted by petty fools

But I know that there's one thing
For sure and certain one thing...
Dyin's gonna be the death of me

I hope to live a long life
A meaningful and full life
But I'm told that cancers on its way
And heart disease is here to stay

And our food supply is tainted
Organics overrated
Just try to walk the miracle mile
Grim Reapers got a great big smile

But I know that there's one thing
For sure and certain one thing...
Dyin's gonna be the death of me
