It's the hard knock life for us
It's the hard knock life for us
Stead of treated
We get tricked
Stead of kisses we get kicked
It's the hard knock life
Got no folks to speak of so
It's the hard knock roe hoe
Cotton blankets
Stead of wool
Empty bellies
Stead of full
It's the hard knock life
Don't it feel like the wind is always howlin
Don't it seem like there's never any light
Once a day don't you wanna throw the towel in
It's easier than putting up a fight
No one's there when your dreams at night get creepy
No one cares if you grow or if you shrink
No one dries when your eyes get wet and weepy
From all the crying you would think this place would sink
Ohhhhhhh
Empty belly life
Rotten smelly life
Full of sorrow life
No tommorrow life
Santa claus we never see
Santa claus whats that who's he
No one cares for you a smidge when your in an orphanage
It's the hard knock life
You'll stay up til this dump shines like the top of the chrysler building
Yank the wiskers from her chin
Stab her with a safety pin
Make her drink a mickey fin
I love you miss hanigan
It's the hard knock life for us
No one cares for you a smidge when your in an orphanage
It's the hard knock life
It's the hard knock life
