Artist: buffalo tom
Song: crueler
It's so mean it's crueler than your dreams
And it's worse than it seems
Added it up stick it in your cup
You're sure to get enough
It runneth over now
You can't complain no more
Your bones are cracking now
You'd better knuckle down
Life's so cheap it's cheaper than it looks
You can't learn that from books
Stay in the house stay clear of what you fear
And you're old beyond your years
It runneth over now
You can't complain no more
Your bones are cracking now
You'd better knuckle down
You're leaving your long shadows
Leaning into space
And your hardscrabble life
Is written all over your face
Counterfeit the bankroll that was his
Fist of change that was yours
A life so cheap it was cheaper than it looked
You can learn that from books
It runneth over now
You can't complain no more
Your bones are cracking now
You'd better knuckle down
Leave you with a prayer book
And a pocket full of grace
And your hardscrabbled life
Is written all over your face
Life's so cheap, life's so cheap
It's so mean it's crueler than your dreams
And it's worse than it seems
Life?s so cheap
It?s so mean
Life?s so cheap
It?s so mean
Life?s so cheap
Whisper in my ear
Whisper in my ear
Whisper in the night
Whisper all the time
Life's so cheap, yeah
