That's life, that's what all the people say,
Your riding high in april, shot down in may,
But i know i'm gonna change that tune,
When i'm back on top, back on top in june,
I said that's life, and as funny as it may seem,
Some people get their kicks stomping on a dream,
But i don't let it, let it get me down,
'cause this fine old world it keep spining round.

I've been a puppet, a pauper,
A pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king,
I've been up and down,
Over and out, i know a thing,
Each time i find myself,
Lying flat on my face,
Well i pick myself up,
And get back in the race,

That's life (that's life)
I tell ya, i can't deny it,
I thought i cuting out,
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it,
And if i didn't think,
It was worth one single trial,
Well i'd jump right on that big bird,
And i'd fly.

I've been a puppet, a pauper,
A pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king,
I've been up and down,
Over and out, i know a thing,
Each time i find myself,
Laying flat on my face,
Well i pick myself up again,
And get back in the race,

That's life (that's life)
That's life and woah, i can't deny it, no,
I thought i quiting babe,
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it,
And if there nothing shaking, come this year,
I'm gonna role myself up in a big ball,
And die.
My my.
