With all your trouble you had to take some time off work and
Your boss thinks you’re lazy, thinks that you’ve been shirking
And he’s given you your P45
Just keep telling yourself ‘Hey! I’m still alive.’ … Get used to it… Get used to it
Get used to it… no one said that life was fair

Get used to it … no guarantees, no even shares

Get used to it………………..that’s life
Instrumental verse
You gotta pick yourself up, start out once again
God helps those who help themselves, next time don’t miss that train
And when you reach that place where all your troubles fall
Don’t go feeling guilty Mr Sunshine’s come to call…
