It's a pity
It's a crying shame
He pulled you down again
How painful it must be
To bruise so easily
Inside
It s a pity
It s a downright crime
It happens all the time
You want to stay little daddy s girl
You want to hide from a vicious world
Outside
Don t cry
You know the tears will do no good
So dry your eyes
Oh, your daddy
He s the iron man
Battleship wrecked under dry land
Your mamma
She s a bitter bride
She ll never be satisfied
do you know ?
And that s not right
But don t cry
You know the tears will do no good
So dry your eyes
Oh, they told you life is hard
Misery from the start
It s dull
It s slow
It s painful
But, I ll tell you life is sweet
Inspite of the misery
There is so much more to be grateful
Well, who do you believe?
Who will you listen to?
Who will it be?
'Cause it's high time that you decide
In your own mind
I've tryed to comfort you
I've tried to tell you to be patient
They are blind
And they can t see
Fortune gonna come one day
They're all gonna fade away
Your daddy
the war machine
and
Your momma
the long and suffering
prisioner of what she can not see
For they've told you life is hard
Misery from the start
It s dull
It s slow
It s painful
But, I ll tell you life is sweet
Inspite of the misery
There is so much more to be grateful
So, who will you believe?
Who will you listen to?
Who will it be?
Because it's high time that you decide
It s time to make up your own
your own state of mind
Oh,they 've told you that life is long
Be thankful when it s done
Don t ask for more
be grateful
But, I ll tell you life is short
Be thankful
Because before you know
It will be over
'Cause life is sweet
Life is oh so very short
Life is sweet
And life is oh so very short
Life is sweet
And life is sweet
And life is sweet
