You're born with nothin’ then slapped in the rear
work your hands to the bone year after year
you graduate with honors from the school of hard knocks
now you're living on the street in a cardboard box

they say life
is a roller coaster ride
I’m on a run away train waiting to collide
we're born, we work, we struggle, we die
life sucks

you bought a big house and you drive a fancy car
but a thousand bucks a week doesn't get you very far
If you want some good advice I'll give you some
have a party every night and pray you die young


After a life time of confusion
I’ve come to this conclusion 
good times are just an illusion
cause life sucks

and when you see the bright lights gleaming
it’s just the con men scheming  
oh they're good at keeping us dreaming
cause life sucks
