Life is a Bitch
Lyrics by Fran Landesman
Life is a bitch
From the cradle to the grave
Even when you're rich
You are always something's slave
Life is a bitch
Full of hang-ups, full of hurt
First love makes you itch
Then it dishes you the dirt
Just watch how the six-year-olds
Break each other's hearts
Better learn to stand the cold
Cultivate the arts
Life's full of shit
Even when you're in your prime
Though your show's a hit
Reason never seems to rhyme
Every joke has a switch
Every joker a twitch
Every high has a hitch
Baby, life is a bitch
