You could put for example in the --- and say:
"life is Budweiser time"
(are you allowed to put proper nouns -actual names- in the forum...?)

Might this be equivalent as:
"Let's enjoy --- !" ?

Any suggestions are heartfeltly welcome.
Thank you.
It's defining 'Life'. Notice the copular structure:

Life = Bud Time
Bud Time = Life

EX: Life is a bowl of cherries.
