Life Is Sweet |
It’s a pity It’s a crying shame |
He pulled you down again |
How painful it must be To bruise so easily |
Inside |
It’s a pity it’s a downright crime |
It happens all the time |
You wanna stay little daddy’s girl |
You wanna hide from the viscous world… |
Outside |
Don’t cry you know the tears will do no good |
So dry your eyes |
Your daddy he’s the iron man |
Battle ship wrecked on dry land |
Your mamma she’s a bitter bride |
She’ll never be satisfied |
You know, and that’s not right |
But don’t cry |
You know the tears will do no good |
So dry your eyes |
They told you life is hard |
Misery from the start, it’s dull |
It’s slow, it’s painful |
But I tell you life is sweet |
In spite of the misery |
There’s so much more, be grateful |
Well, who do you believe |
Who will you listen to, who will it be Because it’s high time that you decide |
In your own mind |
I’ve tried to comfort you |
I tried to tell you to be patient |
That they are blind and they can’t see |
Fortune gonna come one day |
It all gonna fade away |
Your daddy the war machine |
And your momma the long and suffering |
Prisoner of what she can not see |
For they told you life is hard |
Misery from the start, it’s dull, |
It’s slow, it’s painful |
But I tell you life is sweet |
In spite of the misery |
There’s so much more, be grateful |
So who will you believe |
Who will you listen to Who will it be Because it’s high time that you decide |
It’s time to make up your own |
Your own state of mind |
They told you life is long |
Be thankful when it’s done |
Don’t ask for more, be grateful |
But I tell you life is short |
Be thankful, because before you know it It will be over |
Because life is sweet |
Life is all so very short |
Life is sweet |
And life is all so very short |
Life is sweet |
Life is sweet |
