Sing this story of everything, uh
Living, dying, lying, denial

Sing this story of everything, sing

Here's a story for you that will
Make your head spin 'round
Some troubled soul walks in the church

And guns everyone one down
What did that congregation do?
They forgave that boy somehow, oh yeah

Our do-nothing congress never make mistakes
(Check 'em) Because they don't show up to work
Except to give themselves a raise
The audacity of hope makes every bigot shake
Oh yeah

That's the story of everything
That's the story of everything
That's the story of everything
You can live, you can die

But I know we gotta try to get along
Get along
Living, dying, lying, denial

On mainstreet USA everybody's closin' shop
Because them that's gon' get richer
It's the have and the have nots
My cousin stays on Welfare (mm, mm, mm)
'Cause it pays more than a job, oh yes it does

Now everytime they talk about the way it used to be
You keep on living in the past
Don't do a damn thing for me
Don't tell me how it works
I tell you how it needs to be, oh yes I will

That's the story of everything
That's the story of everything
That's the story of everything, yeah

You can live, you can die
But I know we gotta try to get along, yeah

Living, dying, lying, denial
Throw them hands up, don't y'all dare stop tryin
Stompin' those feet and gasoline on these deucies
Save these babies, been alone as merry go crazy

Breeze like the same chuck verse I'm stuck in
Cursing worse than the new blues, non-stuttering
What the OMG? SMH
Views of rating, news of hating
Things get far gone if ya'll waiting

My mama held me in her arms, the same as I hold mine
I say my prayers and tell my babies everything is fine
(Uh huh) Sometimes I break down
These are surely troubled times
Oh, yes they are

'Cause that's the story of everything (Everything)
That's the story of everything
Sing it, sing it, sing it now
That's the story of everything, yeah

You can live, you can die (You can live, you can die)
But I know we gotta try to get along, yeah
(We gotta try to get along, oh)
That's the story of everything

That's the story of everything
(That's the story of everything)
You can live, you can die but I know we gotta try
Ooh, ooh, ooh

(Yeah, hot damn, yeah, hot damn)
(Yeah hot damn, yeah, hot damn) (Oh)
That's the story (Yeah, hot damn, yeah, hot damn)
Gotta make it better

(Live and die, you know we gotta try to get along)
We gotta change, change
(Story of everthing...)
Live, die, try, try (Story of everything)

That's the story (Live, die, know we gotta try)
Get along, yeah, yeah
Views of rating, news of hating
Views of rating, news of hating (Get along)

Views of rating, news of hating
Things get far gone if ya'll waiting (Get along)
Views of rating, news of hating
Things get too far gone if ya'll waiting (Get along)

Mm to get along
(To get along) (Try) Get-get, get-get...
(To get along) Oh, along, along...
Come on, clap your hands, keep that head up
Keep that head up, throw them hands up
