Was the sign I saw when I suddenly thought
   Your health is your life
  
   Why why why was I thinking that
  
   Who's gonna pay when the children start crying
   You'll never never get away
   Strange how the air that you're breathing is dying
   It's gonna get rough, when I get to...
  
   Hillside Avenue, Jamaica Avenue
   Was the sign I saw when I suddenly thought
   Your health is your life
   Keeps you alive
  
   Why why why was I thinking that
  
   When the rich man lies dying in his bed
   He'll be thinking of the very words I said
   When he's lying there dying in his bed
   He'll be thinking of the very words I said
  
   Repeat!
  
   Hillside Avenue, Jamaica Avenue
   Was the sign I saw when I suddenly thought
   Your health is your life
   Keeps you alive
