Life Is A Lemon (And I Want My Money Back) Lyrics

I want my money back! I want my money back!

 It's all or nothing, and nothing's all I ever get

 Everytime I turn it on, I burn it up and burn it out

 It's always something, there's always something going wrong

 That's the only guarantee, that's what this is all about

 It's a never ending attack, everything's a lie and that's a fact

 Life is a lemon and I want my money back

 And all the morons and all the stooges with their coins

 They're the ones who make the rules,

 It's not a game, it's just a rout

 There's desperation, there's desperation in the air

 It leaves a stain on all your clothes

 And no detergent gets it out

 And we're always slipping thru the cracks

 Slippin'

 Then the movie's over, fade to black

 Life is a lemon and I want my money back

 I want my money back, I want my money back

 What about love?

 It's defective - it's always breaking in half

 What about sex?

 It's defective - it's never built to really last

 What about your family?

 It's defective - all the batteries are shot

 What about your friends?

 They're defective - all the parts are out of stock

 What about hope?

 It's defective - it's corroded and decayed

 What about faith?

 It's defective - it's tattered and it's frayed

 What about your Gods?

 They're defective - They forgot the warranty

 What about your town?

 It's defective - it's a dead end street to me

 What about your school?

 It's defective - it's a pack of useless lies

 What about your work?

 It's defective - it's a crock and then you die

 What about your childhood?

 It's defective - it's dead and buried in the past

 What about your future?

 It's defective - and you can shove it up your ass!

 I want my money back - life is a lemon

 I want my money back - life is a lemon, life is a lemon

 It's all or nothing, and nothing's all I ever get

 Everytime I turn it on, I burn it up and burn it out

 It's a never ending attack,

 Everything's a lie and that's a fact

 Life is a lemon and I want my money back

 And we're always slipping thru the cracks

 Slippin'

 Then the movie's over, fade to black

 Life is a lemon and I want my money back

 Back, back, back, back!

 I want my money back, I want my money back

 Life is a lemon
