Living is hectic, life treats me unkindly
Never enough time, never enough money
No guidebooks so I stumble along blindly
Getting up daily is so hard, it isn't funny

Sanity seems all gone, I'm so batty
A piece of me here, a piece of me there
The kids, even the wife gets so bratty
They are spending us into welfare

As I sit here vacant, into space I stare
Everyones taking, no one's given back
I look for a way out of this nightmare
From all sides I'm under constant attack

Choices are few, only option is prayer
To leave, to run, is out of the question
When I lost control I am not even aware
I don't even know upon deep reflection

Oh to be a kid again, life without pressure
Where life was fun and living was easy
Where daily there were gales of laughter
Living was always simple and quite breezy
