Have you heard about trouble throughout the land
With the fascists and the left wing militants
Out of work executives are killing themselves
And the I.R.A. are killing everybody else
Don't panic, don't lose control
Keep your head, keep ahold
Act normal there's nothing wrong
Stay cool, just carry on
You gotta live life and be yourself
You can't live life for anyone else
You gotta live life that's all you do
Nobody gonna live your life for you
Don't get depressed when you read in the press
About world revolution and social unrest
Try not to panic when you switch on the news
And see crooked politicians and the unemployment queues
It's only life it's really fine
So don't you believe all you read in the headlines
Live life see it through
Carry on it's all you can do
You gotta live life for yourself, can't live for anyone else
You gotta live life, that's all you do
Nobody gonna live their life for you
Extra verse from long version
Trendy intellectuals always take action
For every cause that's ever been in fashion
Weekend revolutionaries protest and sing
Because they're dedicated followers of any old thing
They got every solution for every revolution
They live in the slums just like the poor people do
But they'd rather sniff coke instead of glue
Right-wing fascists beat up the blacks
Then they salute the Union Jack
You can't pretent there's nothing wrong
It's not the end, so just carry on
Oh, life's a mother, oh, life's a mother
Oh, life's a mother, oh, life's a mother
You gotta live life for yourself, can't live life for anyone else
You gotta live life
The Kinks are a British rock band formed in London in 1963 and active until 1996. Considered one of the most influential groups of the British Invasion, they left an indelible mark on rock music with their characteristic sound that blended catchy pop melodies with introspective and often satirical lyrics. The original lineup included Ray Davies (vocals, guitar), Dave Davies (guitar), Mick Avory (drums) and Pete Quaife (bass). Quaife was replaced by John Dalton in 1966 and then permanently in 1969. The Kinks released a vast discography of successful albums, including "Kinks Are the Village Green Preservation Society" (1969), "Lola Versus Powerman and the Moneygoround" (1970) and "Sleepwalker" (1973). Their most famous songs include "You Really Got Me", "All Day and All of the Night", "Waterloo Sunset", "Lola" and "Days". The Kinks were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1990.
