The Bitch Of Living - Original Broadway Cast Recording/2006

God, I dreamed there was an angel
 Who could hear me through the wall
 As I cried out like in Latin
 "This is so not life at all"
 Help me out, out of this nightmare
 Then I heard her silver call
 She said, "Just give it time kid
 I come to one and all"
 She said, "Give me that hand please
 And the itch you can't control
 Let me teach you how to handle
 All the sadness in your soul
 Oh we'll work that silver magic
 Then we'll aim it at the wall"
 She said, "Love may make you blind kid
 But I wouldn't mind at all"
 It's the bitch of living (bitch, just the bitch)
 Nothing but your hand (just the bitch, yeah)
 Just the bitch of living
 As someone you can't stand
 See, each night it's like fantastic
 Tossing, turning without rest
 'Cause my day's at the piano
 With my teacher and her breasts
 And the music's, like, the one thing
 I can even get all
 And those breasts, I mean
 God, please just let those apples fall
 It's the bitch of living (bitch, ah ah ah)
 With nothing going on (nothing going on)
 Just the bitch of living
 Asking "What went wrong?"
 Do they think we want this?
 Oh, who knows?
 See, there's showering at gym class
 Bobby Mayler, he's the best
 Looks so nasty in those khakis
 God, my whole life's like some test
 Then there's Marianna Wheelan
 As if she'd return my calls
 It's like, just kiss some ass man
 Then you can screw 'em all
 (All)
 It's the bitch of living (It's the bitch of living)
 And living in your head (In your head)
 It's the bitch of living
 And sensing God is dead
 It's the bitch of living (You watch me, just watch me)
 And trying to get ahead (I'm calling, and one day)
 It's the bitch of living
 Just getting out of bed
 It's the bitch of living, living (All will know)
 Getting what you get (All will know)
 Just the bitch of living
 And knowing this is it
 God, is this it?
 This can't be it
 Oh God, what a bitch
