[Verse 1]
Signals flying through the air
Who discovered they were there?
Darling, don't be so dramatic
It's not all despair and traffic
Paralysed in paradise
Dining with the parasites
Interspecies intercourse
Old land, new laws
[Chorus]
This is life
This is life
This is life
[Verse 2]
Another day, another train
Paink**ers k** the pain
Bend down, pick it up
Cut it out, stick it up
Who am I to say a thing?
Look at us developing
Modern day machinery
Gaining productivity
[Chorus]
This is life
This is life
This is life
[Bridge]
This is life, this is life
Darling, don't you realise?
This is life, this is life
You ain't got to realise
This is life, this is life
This is life
This is life
