 F#m
It's all or nothing
 D/F#
And nothing's all I ever get
 F#m
Everytime I turn it on, I burn it up and burn it out

It's always something
 D/F#                           F#m
There's always something going wrong

That's the only guarantee, that's what this is all about


F#5   G#5   A5   D5
                      It's a never ending attack
F#5   G#5   A5   D5
                      Everything's a lie and that's a fact
F#5   G#5   A5   D5
                      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 rout


There's desperation
There's desperation in the air
It leaves a stain on all your clothes
And no detergent gets it out


And we're always slipping thru the cracks
Then the movie's over, fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back

Everytime 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 thru the cracks
Then the movie's over, fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
Back, back, back, back!
I want my money back, I want my money back - life is a lemon
