Isn't it a tuff life? You race your Mercedes Benz through the park after midnight Hopin' for a few cheap thrills There's always someone around to lift your spirits up All along just pumpin' up your attitude Don't believe a word they say, 'cause it's never true Chorus: Isn't it a tuff life? You got a tuff life If you can't have it, then you don't want it You don't need no steady job, isn't it a tuff life? You got a tuff life You thought you'd move to Jamaica So you packed up your bags and you headed South to get an even tan But you didn't count on rain You were perfect for the script So you bought the best-selling novel knowing that you couldn't miss But you never got the part Chorus It don't get any easier, and ya know, sometimes it can pretty ruff Isn't it a tuff life? You got (such) a tuff life... (repeats)
