life is a series of conflicting desires
you want to stay out of the frying pan but you don't want to land in the fire you want to find the perfect mate of course you also want to be free conflicting desires as far as the eye can see as far as the eye can see life is a total disaster of what you call "epic proportions" they make you jump through all kinda hoops while you do your contortions there's a lways a landlord there's always some rent to pay another little disaster each and every day each and every day each and every day life is a noisy party next door when you're trying to sleep life is a whispered promise in your ear that you know she won't keep day by day and night by night we're just trying to beat the clock at the end of the day you're another day older with another new hole in your sock another new hole in your sock another new hole in your sock now they say life is what you make it i've heard it said a million times but life is what everyone else makes it, too and there's often no reason or rhyme you say you're a self made man yeah sure, go tell it to your mother and bartender, whatever you're pouring i believe i'll have another i believe i'll have another Copyright Samm Bennett - all rights reserved back to Lyrics Table of Contents |
