Lyrics Grab Life - Jerry Williams

There's a man called Jack, lives down my road
He built a house with his own hands
Bricks and sand can make a home
I wanna build a house like Jack

Then there's Irene from next door
She survived the Second World War
Raised six children on her own
I wanna be brave like Irene

[Pre-Chorus] Some things you can't control
How am I supposed to know
What I should be keeping close
And what I should let go

Maybe it's not worth the worry

Grab life
In between the teeth
'Cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed
Take a bite
There's a feast for you to eat
'Cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed

No space in this town for me to breathe
I've had enough and I want to leave
Said Lucy, sat by the river
Eating chips, wishing she was thinner

Oh mom, I've let you down
I wanna be friends with the family now
But is goes so quick
And in a blink
It could all go down the bathroom sink

Grab life
In between the teeth
'Cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed
Take a bite
There's a feast for you to eat
'Cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed

Irene

Grab life
In between the teeth
'Cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed
Take a bite
There's a feast for you to eat
'Cause soon enough man, you'll be dead
Don't watch the sunshine from your bed

There's a man called Jack, lives down my road
He built a house with his own hands
Bricks and sand can make a home
I wanna build a house like Jack
