Lyrics
Was a bug, little bug, hardly there How he felt, what he dreamed, who could care? Without any evidence (His flaws were many) He was full of confidence (Some people haven’t any) Didn’t have much common sense (It’s highly over-rated) He just knew that he’d come through It’s the time of your life so live it well It’s the time of your life so live it well

We may only go ‘round one time As far as I can tell It’s the time of your life so live it well We may only go ‘round one time As far as I can tell (He could be wrong about that) It’s the time of your life It’s the time of your life It’s the time of your life so live it well It’s the time of your life so live it well It’s the time of your life so live it well

We may only go ‘round this one time As far as I can tell It’s the time of your life so live it well Like us all, he started small Then he grew When the time came he knew what to do He knew in order to succeed (They’d have to work together) He turned a rock into a seed (And they were changed forever) Then they had the strength they’d need (To get through stormy weather) Do or die, you gotta try

Chorus Isn’t it a bit surprising How one’s fortunes ebb and flow And only to the enterprising Does the magic fortune cookie go Believe me It’s the time of your life so live it well
