It's the Hard-Knock Life Songtext

von Charles Strouse

It's a hard-knock life for us!
It's a hard-knock life for us!
'Stead of treated,

We get tricked!

'Stead of kisses,

We get kicked!

It's a hard-knock life for us!
It's a hard-knock life for us!
'Stead of treated,

We get tricked!

'Stead of kisses,

We get kicked!

It's a hard-knock life!

Don't it feel like the wind is always howlin?

Don't it seem like there's never any light!

Once a day, don't you wanna throw the towel in?

It's easier than putting up a fight.

No one's there when your dreams at night are creepy!
No one cares if you grow or if you shrink!

Empty belly life!
Rotten smelly life!
Full of sorrow life!
No tomorrow life!

Santa Claus we never see

Santa Claus, what's that?
Who's he?

No one cares for you a bit
When you're a foster kid

It's a hard-knock life for us!
It's a hard-knock life for us!
'Stead of treated,

We get tricked!

'Stead of kisses,

We get kicked!

It's the hard-knock life for us
It's the hard-knock life for us
No one cares for you a bit
When your a foster kid.
