LIFE IS SO PRETTY

from DEMOS by Rick Berlin

about

The conundrum. Ugly v pretty. As it manifested in my Mom n Dad. I also wanted t write something with only a bass line. If the band ever learns it, it'll be up to them. Always cool like that.

lyrics

LIFE IS SO PRETTY

do wa diddy
life is so pretty

write a hit song
high wire in a circus
drive a bus t Seattle
Niagara in a barrel
my heart's a home movie
but i ain't no clown
i mix it up
n then i fall right down

uh oh
uh oh
uh oh
uh oh

do wa diddy
life is so pretty

my dad was a madman
a drunk a two timer
my mama fought back
she gave him a shiner
but i don't wanna learn
the hard luck he burned
see im different i hope
i got hurt but i aint cold

uh oh
uh oh
uh oh
uh oh

do wa diddy
life is so pretty

uh oh
uh oh
uh oh
uh oh

life is so pretty
do wa diddy
life is so pretty
do wa diddy
life is so pretty
do wa diddy
