Verse:

Oh hope for the hopeless,
I'm learning to cope with the emotionless
Mediocracy, uh huh, day to day living.

How can I help but be restless when,
Everything seems so tastless and,
All of the colours seem to have faded away?

Chorus:

Ohhhhh
This is life
And everythings alright
Living living living living living living living life.

Hold me like a mother would,

Ohhhhh
This is life
And everything's alright
Living living living living living living living life.
