[ALL] It's a hard-knock life! Got no folks to speak of, so, It's the hard-knock row we how [DUFFY] Cotton blankets memory byAmandaH , Editor This scene from Austin Powers in Goldmember could be our favorite pop culture moment that "It's The Hard-Knock Life" appears in: See all [ORPHANS] 'steada wool [DUFFY] Empty Bellies [ORPHANS] 'Steada full! [ALL] It's a hard-knock life! [ANNIE] Don't it feel like the wind is always howlin? [KATE AND TESSIE] Don't it seem like there's never any light? [ANNIE and MOLLY] What's a day you don't wanna throw the towel in? [PEPPER,JULY] It's easier than putting up a fight. [ANNIE] No one's there when your dreams at night are creepy! No one cares if you grow or if you shrink! No one dries when your eyes get wet and weepy [ALL] From the crying you would think this place would sink! Ohhhh!!!!!!! Empty belly life! Rotten smelly life! Full of sorrow life! No tomorrow life! [MOLLY] Santa Claus we never see, [ANNIE] Santa Claus? What's that? Who's he? [ALL] No one cares for you a smidge When you're in an orphanage It's the hard knock life [MOLLY] (Making a whistling sound and imitating Miss Hannigan) You'll stay up 'til this dump shines like the top of the Chrysler Building. [ORPHANS (Except Molly)] Yank the whiskers from her chin Jab her with a safety Pin Make her drink a Mickey Finn I love you Miss Hannigan. [Molly] Get to work! Strip them beds! Scrub that floor! Polish my shoes! And I mean. Start. NOW! [ALL] It's the hard-knock life for us It's the hard-knock life for us No one cares for you a smidge When you're in an orphanage It's The Hard Knock Life!
