| Bad news if he could choose
|
| Would he refuse to be the bearer
|
| It seems what he has to do
|
| Could not be any clearer
|
| It’s a job he can’t neglect
|
| Its consequences will affect
|
| I’m glad that I’m not in his shoes
|
| He’s the bearer of bad news
|
| What can he do?
|
| He’s got an ugly job to do
|
| Oh, there’s always something
|
| That can set you back
|
| That’s the way life is
|
| Bad breaks for heaven sakes
|
| And mistakes he couldn’t count
|
| To put it politely
|
| Well, it’s a very large amount
|
| Whenever he gets involved
|
| You end up with problems you can’t solve
|
| You’re cleaning up the mess he makes
|
| He’s a victim of bad breaks
|
| What can you say?
|
| Will he always be this way?
|
| Oh, there’s always something
|
| That can set you back
|
| That’s the way life is
|
| Oh, there’s always something
|
| That can set you back
|
| That’s the way life is
|
| It’s not sunny everyday
|
| And there are bumps on every road
|
| Toss in one more dumb cliche
|
| Like life can be a heavy load
|
| Said, life can be a heavy load now
|
| Oh, there’s always something
|
| That can set you back
|
| That’s the way life is
|
| Oh, there’s always something
|
| That can set you back
|
| That’s the way life is
|
| Oh, there’s always something
|
| That can set you back
|
| That’s the way life is
|
| (It's not sunny everyday)
|
| Oh, there’s always something
|
| (And there are bumps on every road)
|
| That can set you back
|
| That’s the way life is |
