Song title: Natalie Merchant - Life Is Sweet

Edit By: 216.73.216.218

Its a pity, its a crying shame
He pulled you down again
How painful it must be
To bruise so easily
Inside

Its a pity, its a downright crime
It happens all the time
You wanna stay little daddys girl
You wanna hide from the viscous world...
Outside

Dont cry, you know the tears will do no good
So dry your eyes
Your daddy, hes the iron man
Battle ship wrecked on dry land
Your mamma, shes a bitter bride
Shell never be satisfied
You know, and thats not right

But dont cry
You know the tears will do no good
So dry your eyes
They told you life is hard
Misery from the start, its dull
Its slow, its painful
But I tell you life is sweet
In spite of the misery
Theres so much more, be grateful
Well, who do you believe
Who will you listen to, who will it be
Because its high time that you decide
In your own mind

Ive tried to comfort you
I tried to tell you to be patient
That they are blind and they cant see
Fortune gonna come one day
It all gonna fade away
Your daddy the war machine
And your momma the long and suffering
Prisoner of what she can not see

For they told you life is hard
Misery from the start, its dull,
Its slow, its painful
But I tell you life is sweet
In spite of the misery
Theres so much more, be grateful
So who will you believe
Who will you listen to
Who will it be
Because its high time that you decide
Its time to make up your own
Your own state of mind

They told you life is long
Be thankful when its done
Dont ask for more, be grateful
But I tell you life is short
Be thankful, because before you know it
It will be over
Because life is sweet
Life is all so very short
Life is sweet
And life is all so very short
Life is sweet
Life is sweet
