Written by b. setzer You only go around once on this big spinnin' planet of love So don't be wastin' my time Tell me what you're dreamin' of We'll take a rocket to the moon and when we get that far I'll hang your coat and hat upon a shooting star Let's live it up! let's live it up! let's live it up! Hang up the cat and put the dog out to dry Roll up the bird, let the alligator wave bye-bye We'll take a sloe gin to china, a train to peru In a rusty old steamer or a leaky canoe Let's live it up! let's live it up! let's live it up! Around the block in a hot balloon sounds awfully good to me Or a seat on the wing of a jumbo jet flying straight to mercury What's the matter with me? baby I've been such a fool We'll hop on a raft and navigate around in the pool We'll take a rocket to the moon and when we get that far I'll hang your coat and hat upon a shooting star Let's live it up! let's live it up! let's live it up! What's the matter with me? baby I've been such a fool We'll hop on a raft and navigate around in the pool We'll take a rocket to the moon and when we get that far I'll hang your coat and hat upon a shooting star Let's live it up! let's live it up! let's live it up!
