Eight hours of work, eight hours must I sleep, I can only weep, I realize my life is passing by, Oh O O O Om . . . My life gets in the way of living. Creative people try and lonely people sigh, I can only weep, I realize my life is passing by, Oh O O O Om . . . My life gets in the way of living.     Travels I would make, cause my heart to break,     For misery and ecstasy are one.     Tibetan book of the dead, red rivers I have bled     And temple walls, they speak of— My life gets in the way of living. Years spent in school, we learn but never do And if you have a woman, or a man, Your life is spent, by a factor of ten, Oh O O O Om . . . My life gets in the way of living.

My Life Gets in the Way of Living ( song )
Eight hours of work, eight hours must I sleep, I can only weep, I realize my life is passing by, Oh O O O Om . . . My life gets in the way of living. Creative people try and lonely people sigh, I can only weep, I realize my life is passing by, Oh O O O Om . . . My life gets in the way of living.     Travels I would make, cause my heart to break,     For misery and ecstasy are one.     Tibetan book of the dead, red rivers I have bled     And temple walls, they speak of— My life gets in the way of living. Years spent in school, we learn but never do And if you have a woman, or a man, Your life is spent, by a factor of ten, Oh O O O Om . . . My life gets in the way of living.
