That's life That's what the people say You're riding high in April Shot down in May I know I've got to change my tune When I get back up on top in June
That's life Funny as it may seem Some people get their kicks from stepping on a dream I don't let it get me down This big old world keeps spinning round
Chorus I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king I've been up, down, over and out And I know one thing Every time I find myself flat on my face I pick myself up and get back in the race
That's life I can't deny it I thought of quitting but my heart wouldn't buy it If I don't think it's worth a try I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
Chorus
Last verse
Bye bye Bye bye
