Till I Am Laid To Rest

If our life is predestined and our fate preordained
Why stress and strain, why live a life of drudgery
Oh, why toil in vain, why to the grindstone be chained,
Let's indulge in a life of slothful luxury.

Better to garage your car, wash it, clean it, take it for a spin once in a while and put it back in the garage -- if you catch my drift! lol.
