Lyrics

Isn't it a tuff life?

Expressing the challenging nature of life

You race your Mercedes through the park after midnight

Describing a reckless drive through the park at midnight

Hopin' for a few cheap thrills

Seeking excitement or enjoyment without much cost

There's always someone around to lift your spirits up

Highlighting the presence of supportive people

All along just pumpin' up your attitude

Boosting one's confidence and demeanor

Don't believe a word they say

Encouraging skepticism toward rumors or advice

Cause it's never true

Suggesting that rumors are often false

Isn't it a tuff life?

Reiterating the tough nature of life

You got a tuff life

Affirming the challenging aspects of existence

If you can't have it, then you don't want it

Expressing a preference for things that are difficult to attain

You don't need no steady job

Rejecting the need for a stable job

Well, isn't it a tuff life?

Repeating the assertion of life's toughness

You got a tuff life

Affirming the difficult nature of one's life


You thought you'd move to Jamaica

Narrating a move to Jamaica for a better lifestyle

So you packed up your bags and headed south to get an even tan

Describing the pursuit of a tan in a tropical location

But, you didn't count on rain

Unexpectedly encountering challenges (rain) in the pursuit of happiness


You were "perfect" for the script

Being considered ideal for a role in a script

So you bought the best selling novel

Purchasing a popular novel with high expectations

Knowing that you couldn't miss

Confidently anticipating success but facing disappointment

But you never got the part

Failing to secure the intended role


Isn't it a tuff life?

Reiterating the tough nature of life

You got a tuff life

Affirming the challenging aspects of existence

If you can't have it, then you don't want it

Expressing a preference for difficult pursuits

You don't need no steady job

Rejecting the necessity of a stable job

Well, isn't it a tuff life?

Repeating the assertion of life's toughness


It don't get any easier

Emphasizing the ongoing difficulty of life

And you know, sometimes it can get pretty ruff

Acknowledging the occasional roughness of life


Well, isn't it a tuff life?

Reiterating the tough nature of life

You got a tuff life

Affirming the challenging aspects of existence


Isn't it a tuff life?

Reiterating the tough nature of life

You got a tuff life

Affirming the challenging aspects of existence

Isn't it a tuff life?

Reiterating the tough nature of life

You've got such a tuff life

Emphasizing the extreme difficulty of life

Isn't it a tuff life?

Reiterating the tough nature of life

You got a tuff life

Affirming the challenging aspects of existence

Isn't it a tuff life?

Repeating the assertion of life's toughness

You got such a tuff life)

Emphasizing the extreme difficulty of life
