  This paper is devoted to the lifespan of solutions to a damped fourth-order
wave equation with logarithmic nonlinearity $$u_{tt}+\Delta^2u-\Delta
u-\omega\Delta u_t+\alpha(t)u_t=|u|^{p-2}u\ln|u|.$$ Finite time blow-up
criteria for solutions at both lower and high initial energy levels are
established, and an upper bound for the blow-up time is given for each case.
Moreover, by constructing a new auxiliary functional and making full use of the
strong damping term, a lower bound for the blow-up time is also derived.
