So You Won't Have To Die Lyrics - Grand Funk Railroad

The way of life is tough these days, it's hard to get along 

But Jesus came and He talked to me and that's why I wrote this song 

He told me of my brothers in a far and distant land 

He said that it's gettin' crowded on Earth 

And it's time we made some plans, time we made some plans 

He said overpopulation is the problem of today 

There's too many children on the Earth and more on the way 

If you don't start some birth control, then you won't last too much longer 

It's best that we let it save our souls 

So we can get much stronger, get much stronger, ah 

I'm afraid of overpopulation 

I don't want to die of suffocation 

The world is full of pollution 

And Jesus is the solution 

He said we're gettin' near the end and I'm as close as you are 

If you take Jesus as a friend, you're gonna' be a big star 

Star that shines in the sky above, a light you cannot sever 

You will be with Him above 

And you will shine forever, shine forever, ah
