Whatcha Gonna Do When Your Number's Up (Now The Truth Can Be Told Album Version)

Sally's into knowledge

Spent her years in college

Just to find out nothing is true

She can hardly speak now

Words are not unique now

'cause they can't say anything new

You say humanist philosophy is what it's all about?

You're so open-minded that your brains leaked out

[Chorus]

Whatcha gonna do when your number's up?

Time to lay diplomas down

(time to lay your money down)

Whatcha gonna do when your number's up?

And you're buried six feet underground

Spent your life looking out for number one

Pride'll come before a fall

Whatcha gonna do when your number's up?

Were you thinking

That was the end of it all?

Harry's a civilian

Wants to make a million

So he keeps on pluggin' away

Money is eternal

Like the Wall Street Journal

Yes they're gonna make him happy someday

Grabbin' for the gusto

Gonna hit paydirt or bust

Where's it gonna get you

When you bite the dust?

[Chorus]

Buried in your psyche is the shadow of a doubt

You're so open minded that your brains leaked out
