It’s a hard-knock life!

hard-knock-life

Today, I learned a new song – which is not really a new song. The song is about the life of foster kids. But I’d say this song is for everybody. It does feel like the wind is always howl’n? and surely it is the hard-knock life that we are living in.

It’s a hard-knock life for us
It’s a hard-knock life for us

‘Stead of treated 

We get tricked

‘Stead of kisses 
We get kicked
It’s the hard-knock life

Don’t if feel like the wind is always howl’n? 

Don’t it seem like there’s never any light!

Once a day, don’t you wanna throw the towel in? 

It’s easier than puttin’ up a fight

No one’s there when your dreams at night get creepy
No one cares if you grow or if you shrink

Empty belly life
Rotten smelly life

Full of sorrow life

No tomorrow life

Santa Claus we never see 
Santa Claus, what’s that? 

Who’s he? 

No one cares for you a smidge 
When you’re a foster kid 

It’s the hard-knock life 
Make my bathroom shine
But don’t touch my medicine cabinet

It’s a hard-knock life for us
It’s a hard-knock life for us

‘Stead of treated 
We get tricked
‘Stead of kisses 
We get kicked
It’s the hard-knock life for us
It’s the hard-knock life for us

No one cares for you a smidge 
When you’re a foster kid 

It’s the hard-knock life 
It’s the hard-knock life
