(Ob La Di Ob La Da)
Desmond drinks his whiskey in a tavern down the street
Molly’s at the table, her troubles she’s forgot
She sips her sorrow, bitter and discreet
While, Desmond, at the tavern has another shot
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, brah
All alone, drowning in the bar.
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, brah
All alone, drowning in the bar.
Desmond's in a stupor, Molly's eyes are glazed,
Chasing empty bottles, like a fallen star.
In the haze of spirits, where their stories dazed.
But for Desmond and Molly, it's a bottle too far.
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, brah
All alone, drowning in the bar.
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, brah
All alone, drowning in the bar.
In a world of glasses, swirling, amber tide,
Life goes on forever and forever
Lost in drunken circles, where emotions hide.
Desmond and Molly’s barroom opera
Happy ever after at the Tavern down the street
Desmond starts to have another drink
Molly stays at home and drinks her whiskey, neat
And in the morning, their plans are washed down the sink
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, brah
All alone, drowning in the bar.(hey)
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, brah
All alone, drowning in the bar.
In a world of glasses, swirling, amber tide,
Life goes on forever and forever
Lost in drunken circles, where emotions hide.
Desmond and Molly’s barroom opera
Happy ever after at the Tavern down the street
Molly starts to have another drink
Desmond stays at home and drinks her whiskey, neat
And in the morning, their plans are washed down the sink
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, brah
All alone, drowning in the bar. (hey)
Ob-la-di, ob-la-da
Life goes on, brah
All alone, drowning in the bar.
And if you want some fun
Take Ob-la-di-bla-da
Thank you
