Fight your failing trend and life is sure to send
A curse upon you when pizza time never ends!
When there's no cash to spend, pizza time never ends!
When work takes you from friends, pizza time never ends!
When sleep's just a pretense, pizza time never ends!
Until your lifetime ends, pizza time never ends!
Pizza time never ends, pizza time never ends!
PIZZA TIME NEVER ENDS, PIZZA TIME NEVER ENDS!
