Lyrics

1. THAT'S LIFE

That's life, That's Life
That's what all the people say.
You're riding high on Monday,
Shot down in May.
But I, I ain't never gonna change my tune
When I'm back on top in the month of June.

I said, that's life. That's Life
Ain't as funny as it may seem,
Some people get their kicks
Stompin' on a dream.
But I, I don't never let it get me down
'cause that big ol' world keeps spinnin' 'round.

Been a puppet, pirate, a poet, a pauper, a pawn and a king.
Been up and down and over and out and I know one thing:
Each time that I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race.

That's life, That's Life
And I can't deny it,
Many times I thought of quitting, babe,
But my heart wouldn't buy it.
If I didn't think it was worth one try
I'd jump right on a big bucket and fly.

Been a puppet, poet, pirate, pauper; now I'm a king.
Been up, down, I know one thing:
Each time that I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race.

That's life, That's Life
And I can't deny it,
Many times I thought of quitting, babe,
But my heart wouldn't buy it.
If I didn't think it was worth one try
I'd just roll myself up in a big ball and fly.


2. BUMP AND GRIND

Lookin' for love in the back of a taxi
Got lucky in a cheap motel
Hot pants, nasty
Don't bother knockin'
'Cause you know damn well

This blind date is cash and carry
Dead ringer for the big first prize
She's screaming in the roarin' 80's
And ain't goin' home tonight
So shake it slowly
And do that bump and grind

Well I can tell you've got a few reservations
More value, beg for the buck
I may be wrong but she kind of likes you
Think quiet or you're outta luck

This blind date is cash and carry
We have a winner for the big first prize
Cheap scheming in the roarin' 80's
And you ain't goin' nowhere tonight
Shake it slowly
And do that bump and grind
Rotate slowly
Make it bump and grind, oh yeah

I feel romantic, I wanna let you know
Have you ever really studied dancing
Or do you make it up as you go

Shake it slowly
Do that bump and grind
Move it slowly
And make it bump and grind
Bump it to me
