Lyrics

The Life of Reilly    Copyright ©2014 Colin Ward

V1
Everything around you glitters like gold,
Do what you want, but never get old,
If you aren’t perfect, a knife can fix you up,
Then sue the doctor and fill your cup

Chorus
There’s something wrong with the way we think,
Have all you want, then it’s gone in a blink,
Lawyers get their cut, no matter who’s wrong,
Stirring up the pot just to move themselves along,
It’s a sad day, in the life of Reilly

V2
Sip your coffee, it’s steaming hot,
Spill it on your skin, then sue the lot,
They didn’t warn you, they’d heated it up,
They didn’t tell you, to hold on to the cup,

Chorus

Bridge,
Sue the man who pays your wages,
Soon your job will be done in Asia,

Chorus
