Bad Side of the Moon

Seems as though I've lived my life on the bad side of the moon
To stir your drinks, and sittin' still
Without a rustic spoon
Now come on people, live with me
Where the light has never shown
And the hornets flock like humming birds
Speaking in a foreign tongue

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

Seems as though I've lived my life on the bad side of the moon
To stir your drinks, and sittin' still
Without a rustic spoon
Now come on people, live with me
Where the light has never shown
And the hornets flock like humming birds
Speaking in a foreign tongue

Now come a lot further away
For the people who make me say
City, on the bad side of the moon

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

The edony for washing our chairs
Justifies our ways.
We lived our lives in wedding halls that may cause us to stay
They exile here from other worlds
Their sentence comes too soon
Why should I be, made to pay, on the bad side of the moon?

Now come a lot further away
For the people who make me say
City, on the bad side of the moon

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life

This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
This is my life, this is my life, this is my life, my life
