YOLO Lyrics - Kendrick Lamar

1 Yolo

2 YOLO, you only live once

3 The battle cry of a generation

4 This life is a precious gift

5 So don't get too crazy

6 It's not worth the risk

7 You know that we are still young

8 So don't be dumb

9 Don't trust anyone

10 Cause you only live once

11 Ugh, you only live once

12 That's the motto

13 So take a chill pill

14 Ease off the throttle

15 Never go to loud clubs

16 Cause it's bad for your ears

17 Your friends will all be sorry

18 When they can't hear

19 And stay the hell away from drugs

20 Cause they're not legal

21 Then bury all your money in the backyard

22 Like a beagle

23 'Cause you should never trust a bank

24 They've been known to fail

25 And never travel by car, a bus

26 Boat or by rail

27 And don't travel by plane

28 And don't travel at all

29 Built a bomb shelter basement

30 With titanium walls

31 And wear titanium suits

32 In case pianos fall on ya

33 And never go in saunas

34 Cause they're crawlin' with piranhas

35 And never take the stairs

36 'Cause they're often unsafe

37 You only live once

38 Don't let it go to waste

39 You know that we are still young

40 So hold off on the fun

41 Cook your meat 'til it's done

42 Cause you only live once

43 Yeah

44 And here's another piece of advice

45 Stay away from kids

46 Cause their hair is filled with mad lice

47 There's no such thing

48 As too much Purell

49 This a cautionary tale

50 Word to George Orwell

51 So don't 1980 force

52 Any plugs into sockets

53 Always wear a chastity belt

54 And triple lock it

55 Then hire a taster

56 Make him check your food for poison

57 And if you think your mailman is a spy

58 Then destroy him

59 No blankets or pajamas

60 They can choke you in your sleep

61 Two words about furniture

62 Killing machines

63 Board your windows up

64 The sun is bad for your health

65 And always wear a straight jacket

66 So your safe from yourself

67 Take no chances (no chances)

68 Stop freelancin' (right now)

69 Invest in your future

70 Don't dilute your finances (uh huh)

71 401K, make sure it's low risk

72 Then get some real estate (how much?)

73 4.2% thirty year mortgage

74 That's important, that's a great deal

75 And if you can't afford it

76 Don't forge it on your last bill

77 Renting is for suckers right now

78 A dependable savings

79 And you'll retire with money in your account

80 Beast

81 YOLO, say no no

82 Isolate yourself

83 And just roll solo

84 Be care-folo

85 You oughta look out

86 Also stands for YOLO

87 You know that we are still young

88 Burn the prints off your thumbs

89 Then pull out all your teeth

90 So you can't bite your tongue

91 Only on this earth for a short time, time

92 So don't go outside, cause you don't want to die, die

93 Just take our advice and hide

94 And scream YOLO to the sky

95 You oughta look out
