Lyrics

                        You think you see me, in the glass
You think you hear me, you better listen fast
I think I see you, gone to seed
The only reasons, were your guilt and greed

You’re out there on your own
Your face turned to stone
Whatever happened to your life?
Stone Dead Forever

You’re a financial wizard, a top tycoon
A sweet lounge lizard, with a silver spoon
You know you never had it, quite so good
You didn’t know, that you even could

The wrong side of the fold
Your touch has turned to gold
Whatever happened to your life?
Stone Dead Forever

It’s been a long time, been a long long wait
And you’ve caught your fingers, in the Pearly Gates
You’d better leave your number, and we’ll call you
You know your problems, ain’t exactly new

The time has come today
Your feet turn to clay
Whatever happened to your life?
Stone Dead Forever

Originally released by Motörhead in 1979 on the Bomber album.
