Arrogant Worms - Life On The Road Lyrics
The life of the artist may seem like fun to youThat's cause you don't know the hell that we go throughWaking up at noon working an hour every dayAnd every now and then having to go on tour and playBut it is almost worth it when we finally appearAt the best place in the world, insert your town name hereMe and my comradesAre rock n' roll nomadsSo hot we might explodeOr get really sweaty, that's life on the roadWe do it for the children and for the elderly tooAnd 'cause we really, really, really, really like youAnd we do it for the money and 'cause we're slobsWho are unqualified for any paying jobsWhile you're working nine to five spare a thought for usAs we're sitting watching DVD's on our fancy busGetting a massageFrom our masseuse, LarsI'm developing a rollFrom all this rich food, that's life on the roadLife on the road (I think it's time for my afternoon nap)Life on the road (where the hell did I put that map)Life on the road (sometimes it's hard to find a good salad)Life on the road (and that's why we're singing this power ballad)We can try to tell you but you'll never understandThe hell of being wealthy and having lots of fansSo we hope you're happy putting us through hellBecause of you we get to stay in really nice hotelsWe sacrifice ourselves bringing joy into your livesAnd to sell this crap we've got for you to buyStealing toiletriesFrom the room before we leaveThen to another town we goAfter a continental breakfast, that's life on the roadLife on the roadIt's hot and it's coldLike pie a la modeThere's no life like it, life on the road
