Thomas Sitting at home, wondering what to do What I did wrong's a big mystery Thinking it out, I still can't believe it's true Why do these things happen to me, time after time? Life so cruel, just turns me around Life so cruel, keeps knocking me down Life so cruel, it's against me, it seems Life so cruel, destroys all my dreams Was only last year that I fell from grace A moment's bad luck and love it was gone The kind of bad luck that happens at any place But I was right there, my timing was wrong, and it's wrong once again Life so cruel, just turns me around Life so cruel, keeps knocking me down
Life so cruel, it's against me, it seems Life so cruel, destroys all my dreams For once in my life will fortune be kind to me and let me off light? I don't need the misery I've had before What to do now, I really can't think too straight Better take care, can't make a bad move I'd give my right arm for one lucky break It's just the best time for my luck to improve, but I ain't gonna bank on it Life so cruel, just turns me around Life so cruel, keeps knocking me down Life so cruel, it's against me, it seems Life so cruel, destroys all my dreams
