Life Is A Lemon And I Want My Money Back

AlphabetLyrics.com


It's all or nothing
And nothing's all I ever get
Ev'ry time I turn it on, I burn it up and burn it out.

It's always something
There's always something going wrong
That's the only guarantee, that's what this is all about.

It's a never ending attack
Ev'rything's a lie and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back.

And all the morons
And all the stooges with their coins
They're the ones who make the rules, it's not a game it's just a rout.

There's desperation
There's desperation in the air
It leaves a stain on all your clothes and no detergent gets it out.

And we're always slipping through the cracks
Then the movie's over, fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back.

I want my money back
I want my money back.

What about love?
It's defective! it's always breaking in half.

What about sex?
It's defective! it's never built to really last.

What about your family?
It's defective! all the batteries are shot.

What about your friends?
It's defective! all the parts are out of stock.

What about hope?
It's defective! it's corroded and decayed.

What about faith?
It's defective! it's tattered and it's frayed.

What about you gods?
They're defective! they forgot the warranty.

What about your town?
It's defective! it's a dead-end street to me.

What about your school?
It's defective! it's a pack of useless lies.

What about your work?
It's defective! it's a crock and then you die.

What about your childhood?
It's defective! it's dead and buried in the past.

What about your future?
It's defective! and you can shove it up your ass.

Oh, I want my money back
I want my money back.

It's all or nothing
And nothing's all I ever get
Ev'ry time I turn it on, I burn it up and burn it out.

It's a never ending attack
Ev'rything's a lie and that's a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back.

And we're always slipping through the cracks
Then the movie's over, fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back.

I want my money back
I want my money back.
