Seriously, what are the words to this song?

I thought I knew them for many a year… Well, I had narrowed it down to two choices (the first in the list), but finally deciding to search tonight brings many more choices…. So now I REALLY just don’t know anymore.

Which ones are right?

You decide….

Life…
is a terrible thing…
is a terrible thing…
is a terrible thing…

Life…
is a jungle of fear…
is a jungle of fear…
is a jungle of fear…

Life…
isn’t everything…
isn’t everything…
isn’t everything…

Life…
is a tentative thing…
is a tentative thing…
is a tentative thing…

Life…
Isn’t death everything…
Isn’t death everything…
Isn’t death everything…

I would seriously like peoples comments on this, especially comments related to original references.

I have many inspirational singer/song-writers….

• Elton John
• Billy Joel
• Paul Kelly
• Tim Minchin
• Bruce Springsteen
• Rod Stewart
