This Is The Life

You’re unchanging

I’m unchangeable

That’s a difference

We have to recognise

Some folks never row

Their ways seem like paradise

But inside we all know

That this is the life

You’re the greatest

Thing I’ve ever seen

You make my eyes bleed

And others turn to green

Make the road open

The future all gold

Make my world spin

When I open the door

This is the life

You’d better get used to

You know you don’t choose it, but

This is the life

This is the life

Anything goes

Oh if anything goes

You can wave it away

This thing won’t come back again

And take me round

And let me see

What was I thinking about

Cause now is the time

For you to see me

We can walk away, darling

Or we can say

This s the life

The best thing yet

You’d better not change

Cause this is the life

This is the life

Anything goes

Oh if everything goes

You can wave it away
