lyrics

Cat Scratch Fever is a shitty song it needs a bullet
But when it comes on you can sing along ain't it a bitch that you know it

The sun starts shining in the springtime alright but here they comin
With the shorts and flies and car wash lines and the A/C ain't runnin'

Life is a tough gig, mama

Ain't one easy thing about this job start to finish
Better be right baby I'm losin sight lately tryin not to give in
The Steamtown Mall shook it all night long until it didn't
Two lousy pizza places on the same block and they're still in business

Life is a tough gig, mama

You say money comes frequently and easily
But very little is what it appears to be

You got your new bike you're gonna show off tonight it's got the ribbons
You pulled up to the shop and they laughed when you stopped
And you were just a kid

Life is a tough gig, mama
