|
It's so mean |
|
It's crueler than your dreams |
|
And it's worse than it seems |
|
Add it up |
|
Stick it in your cup |
|
You're sure to get enough |
|
It runneth over now |
|
You can't complain no more |
|
The boards are crackin' now |
|
You better not go down |
|
Life's so cheap |
|
It's cheaper than it looks |
|
You can learn that from books |
|
Stay in the house |
|
So clear of what you fear |
|
And you're old beyond your years |
|
It runneth over now |
|
You can't complain no more |
|
The boards are crackin' now |
|
You better not go down |
|
Leaving your long shadows |
|
Leaning into space |
|
And your heart scrambled |
|
Life is written all over your face |
|
Counterfeit |
|
The bankroll that was his |
|
Fist of change that was yours |
|
A life's so cheap |
|
It was cheaper than it looked |
|
You can learn that from books |
|
It runneth over now |
|
You can't complain no more |
|
The boards are crackin' now |
|
You better not go down |
|
Leave you with a prayer book |
|
And a pocket full of grace |
|
And your heart scrambled |
|
Life is written all over your face |
|
Life's so cheap |
|
Life's so cheap |
|
It's so mean |
|
It's crueler than your dreams |
|
And it's worse than it seems |
|
Life's so cheap |
|
It's so mean |
|
Life's so cheap |
|
It's so mean |
|
Life's so cheap |
|
Whisper in my ear |
|
Whisper in my ear |
|
Whisper in the night |
|
Whisper all the time |
