Supertramp - It's A Hard World lyrics
[Supertramp - It's A Hard World lyrics]
I live in a vacuum, no air
I'm stuck in back room, somewhere
But it don't bother me anyway cause I know
I'm gonna get out soon, I got places to go
There's a big world waiting for me
I just need a break, someone to believe
But right now I'm just tryin' to survive
Livin' rough, shackin' up, hangin' tough
Shapin' up
Get the picture
Get the scene I paint for you
Yeah, but it's worth it
All the pain I'm goin' through
Beat the sidewalk, hear the fast talk
Everyday
I don't worry cause I know I'm on my way
The view from my window, it ain't too good
Should be some mail for
Me soon from Hollywood
When the phone rings, could be big things
Anytime operator is there something wrong
With this line rejections, I've had a few
Happens to the best, that ain't nothing new
Still I keep on swingin' away
There's gonna be a breakthrough any day
Keep hanging in there, that's my philosophy
And soon I'll find my big chance
Yeah just you wait and see
Some make it fast, but they just come and go
Me, I'm built to last and
That's one thing I know
It's a hard world it's a hard world
It's a hard world it's a hard world
Those straight life people
They don't understand
Yeah they just want it all
Laid out and planned
Me, I'm not like them, I do things my own way
I know I'll get that breakthrough any day
Life in the city, can get you down
There's a million guys out
There all snooping around
You gotta think you're the best
Beat out all the rest
And fight your way up to the top of the town
There's a big world waiting for me
I just need a break, someone to believe
But right now I'm just tryin' to survive
I know I'm gonna get there, dead or alive
Dead or alive i know I'm gonna get there
Oh, I know I will
I'm gonna reach for the moon
And all the stars too
I want the universe, I want all the planets
I want everything
I need a big house, I need a big car
I need it i'm, I'm gonna get it
It's just a matter of time
I'm stuck in back room, somewhere
But it don't bother me anyway cause I know
I'm gonna get out soon, I got places to go
There's a big world waiting for me
I just need a break, someone to believe
But right now I'm just tryin' to survive
Livin' rough, shackin' up, hangin' tough
Shapin' up
Get the picture
Get the scene I paint for you
Yeah, but it's worth it
All the pain I'm goin' through
Beat the sidewalk, hear the fast talk
Everyday
I don't worry cause I know I'm on my way
The view from my window, it ain't too good
Should be some mail for
Me soon from Hollywood
When the phone rings, could be big things
Anytime operator is there something wrong
With this line rejections, I've had a few
