Sometimes the life we choose Just like a bottomless pit Sometimes we play with dynamite The fuse already lit Sometimes we soar like an eagle Try to fly like a bird Sometimes we scream for help Still can't be heard What's seen is seen, what's heard is heard What's done is done in this big old world One thing I know is life has shown Sleeping dogs best left alone Don't try and go backwards The hands been already dealt Don't try and laugh at the same old jokes Pain that's already felt Don't try and drive with one eye closed One tire in the ditch Walk around with your head in the sand Saying life ain't nothing but a bitch What's seen is seen, and what's heard is heard Done is done in this great big world One thing I know is life has shown Sleeping dogs best left alone What's seen is seen, what's heard is heard Done in this big old world One thing I know is life has shown Sleeping dogs best left alone Sleeping dogs best left alone Fixing the needs of the clean and the unclean Clean and the unclean Planting the seeds of the seen and the unseen Heard is heard Fixing the needs of the clean and the unclean I'm planting the seeds of the seen and the unseen What's heard is heard
