Lyrics
life is a bed of roses
life is a bed of nails
life is full of suposes
my life is not for sale
life is like an elevator
life is full of ups and downs
life is full of mad dictators
they should be arrested for impersonating clowns
life is like like a window
look through the window and what do you see
you see people with changing faces
followers of fashion thats not for me
life is a bed of roses
life is a bed of nails
life is full of suposes
my life is not for sale
I got maried at 20 years old
it wasn't long before we talked of divorce
I felt as though my life had been sold
what the hell she rode like a horse
life is a bed of roses
life is a bed of nails
life is full of suposes
my life is not for sale
life is what you make it
life is but a game
life is how you fake it
life is such a shame
life is full of emotion
life is driving my car
life is a nuclear explosion
but my life is playing my guitar
life is a bed of roses
life is a bed of nails
life is full of suposes
my life is not for sale
life is a bed of roses
life is a bed of nails
life is full of suposes
my life is not for sale
life is
life is
life is
