That's Life - Robbie Williams

That’s life, that’s what all the people say

You’re riding' high in April

Shot down in May

But I know I’m gonna change that tune

When I’m back on top, back on top in June

I said that’s life, and as funny as it may seem

Some people get their kicks

Steppin' on a dream;

But I don’t ever let it get me down

'Cause this fun ol' word keeps spinnin' round

I’ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate

A poet, a pawn and a king

I’ve been up and down and over and out

And I know one thing:

Each time I find myself falling flat on my face

I pick myself up and get back in the race

That’s life, and I can’t deny it

I thought of quitting baby

But my heart just ain’t gonna buy it

And if I didn’t think it was worth one single try

I’d jump right on a big bird and then I’d lie

I’ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate

A poet, a pawn and a king

I’ve been up and down, over and out

And I know one thing:

Each time I find myself falling 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 I’d cut it out

But my heart won’t buy it

And if there’s nothing shaking from this

I’m gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
