Natalie Merchant Miscellaneous Life Is Sweet It's a pity, it's a crying shame Who 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 the 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 on dry land Your mamma she's a bitter bride She'll never be satisfied, 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 tell you life is sweet In spite of the misery There's so much more, 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 tried 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 Prisoner of what she cannot see For they told you life is hard Misery from the start, It's dull, it's slow, it's painful But I tell you life is sweet In spite of the misery There's so much more, be grateful So, who will you believe Who will you listen to Who will it be 'Cause it's high time that you decide It's time to make up your own Your own state of mind Oh they told you life is long Be thankful when it's done Don't ask for more, be grateful But I tell you life is short Be thankful because Before you know it It will be over 'Cause life is sweet, life is also very short Life is sweet and life is also very short Life is sweet |
