Lyrics - [Verse 1] They might steal your childhood Right out from under your bed Let it be said, this is exactly what they bred Bread? That sounds good, I'll have a sandwich instead Funny how my train of thought derails off the edge Which witch grants wishes? No, wait, that's genies See, this is why nobody takes me seriously Seriously? Who cares if some girls got weenies? We'll still get chopped up like my boy Sweeney's Everybody's got opinions, everybody's got advice Everybody's got a way to tell you how to live your life Meanwhile I'm trying to find the cheat codes to survive And every time I think I do, another bill arrives [Pre-Chorus] Life is... [Chorus] Life is... Trying to make ends meet Trying to find somebody then you die Strife is... Trying to make ends meet You're a slave to money then you die Life is... Trying to make ends meet Trying to find somebody then you die Strife is... Trying to make ends meet You're a slave to money then you die [Verse 2] IRS and taxes Can't tell me what relax is Every single paycheck disappears like magic Nah, that's theft with extra steps A lifetime of anxiety and government requests I got nothing left to give That's the cliché line Everybody says it now So I guess it's mine Just stab me quick with my own shiv Pancreas right here if you're wondering where it is I'm not afraid of death It's the dying that I fear The slow-motion train wreck getting closer every year Here? There? Which way is down? Can somebody help me? I feel like a clown [Chorus] Life is... Trying to make ends meet Trying to find somebody then you die Strife is... Trying to make ends meet You're a slave to money then you die Life is... Trying to make ends meet Trying to find somebody then you die [Bridge] Life is... Down Life is... Up Left Right Wrong Right Fight Flight Work Debt Sleep Stress Life Death Repeat Next [Verse 3] The cannibals are coming They're gonna eat their weight In you and me and Sarah and Cathy Hope we're seasoned great Dead? Like a zombie movie Only this time we're slow-cooked properly Roasted Toasted Golden brown perfection Humanity reduced to an entrée selection Like that bird on turkey day Pass the plate this way Fabulous day I thank the Turks Wait... That's not how Thanksgiving works Whatever Stuff my face Damn... Life's a weird place [Final Chorus] Life is... Trying to make ends meet Trying to find somebody then you die Strife is... Trying to make ends meet You're a slave to money then you die Life is... Trying to make ends meet Trying to find somebody then you die Strife is... Trying to make ends meet You're a slave to money then you die
