Man is born, man lives, man dies
and it's all vanity
and that's about the way it is with the merry-go-round
you get on
you go around
standing in the saddle
Man is born
man lives
man dies
and it's all vanity
He tried thrills
he said "I gave myself to enjoy pleasure"
What are teenagers doing today?
They're trying every thrill there is in the books
We've got colored TV
but it still isn't satisfying
Man is born
man lives
man dies
and it's all vanity
You can't understand it, it's going so loud, and so forth,
and they're all wigglin' and wobblin' around and everything else and
and yet, they feel unsatisfied
and these disc jockeys they say here is a tune that is different
hear the tone that is different
Man is born, man lives, man dies
and it's all vanity
You can't understand it, it's going so loud, and so forth,
and they're all wigglin' and wobblin' around and everything else and
and yet, they feel unsatisfied
and these disc jockeys they say here is a tune that is different
hear the tone that is different
Man is born, man lives, man dies
and it's all vanity
