It`s all or nothing,
and nothing`s all I ever get
Everytime I turn it on,
I burn it up and burn it out
It`s always something,
there`s always something going wrong
That`s the only guarantee,
that`s what this is all about
It`s a never ending attack,
everything`s a lie and that`s a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
And all the morons and all the stooges with their coins
They`re the ones who make the rules,
it`s not a game,
it`s just a rout
There`s desperation,
there`s desperation in the air
It leaves a stain on all your clothes and
no detergent gets it out
And we`re always slipping thru the cracks
Then the movie`s over, fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
What about love?
It`s defective - it`s always breaking in half
What about sex?
It`s defective - it`s never built to really last
What about your family?
It`s defective - all the batteries are shot
What about your friends?
They`re defective - all the parts are out of stock
What about hope?
It`s defective - it`s corroded and decayed
What about faith?
It`s defective - it`s tattered and it`s frayed
What about your Gods?
They`re defective - They forgot the warranty
What about your town?
It`s defective - it`s a dead end street to me
What about your school?
It`s defective - it`s a pack of useless lies
What about your work?
It`s defective - it`s a crock and then you die
What about your childhood?
It`s defective - it`s dead and buried in the past
What about your future?
It`s defective - and you can shove it up your ass!
I want my money back - life is a lemon
I want my money back - life is a lemon, life is a lemon
It`s all or nothing, and nothing`s all I ever get
Everytime I turn it on, I burn it up and burn it out
It`s a never ending attack, everything`s a lie and that`s a fact
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
And we`re always slipping thru the cracks
Then the movie`s over, fade to black
Life is a lemon and I want my money back
Back, back, back, back!
I want my money back,
I want my money back - life is a lemon
