I want my money back
I want my money backIt's all or nothing
And nothing's all I ever get
Every time I turn it on
I burn it up and burn it outIt's always something
There's always something going wrong
That's the only guarantee
That's what this is all aboutIt'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 routThere's desperation
There's desperation in the air
It leaves a stain on all your clothes
And no detergent gets it outAnd we're always slipping through the cracks
Then the movie's over, fade to black
Life is a lemon
And I want my money backI want my money back
I want my money backWhat about love
It's defective
It's always breaking in half
What about sex
It's defective
It's never built to really lastWhat about your family
It's defective
All the batteries are shotWhat about your friends
They're defective
All the parts are out of stockWhat about hope
It's defective
It's corroded and decayedWhat about faith
It's defective
It's tattered and it's frayedWhat about your gods
They're defective
They forgot the warrantyWhat about your town
It's defective
It's a dead-end street to meWhat about your school
It's defective
It's a pack of useless liesWhat about your work
It's defective
It's a crock and then you dieWhat about your childhood
It's defective
It's dead and buried in the pastWhat about your future
It's defective
And you can shove it up your assOh, 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
Every time 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 through the cracks
Then the movie's over, fade to black
Life is a lemon
And I want my money back
I want my money back
Back, back, back, back
I want my money back
I want my money back
(Life is a lemon)
