Fred a workingman sudden relaxes
Because he's got to pay his taxes
Although he like to go on vacation
He regrets he can't afford inflation

Life is Grand
Life is Grand

The local grocery super market
Is hunting for him for a target
They'd like to put on his back the cross
Of all their expenses and all their costs

Life is Grand
Life is Grand

While crucifying the farmer dies
He can't afford to buy supplies
They pay him less but prices rise
And no one stops to wonder why

Life is Grand
Life is Grand

Now lets rejoice about nuclear waste
The house by the plant is a lovely place
I like the scenery by the lake
By why did that poison have to leak

Life is Grand
Life is Grand

God made a lovely world here
But man had to go and make it prettier
With chemicals and scientific spells
It might be safer to live in hell

Life is Grand
Life is Grand

And on the subject of Christmas time
Say what is the meaning of the rhyme
Buying of coarse the commercial's say
And bother are kids day after day

Life is Grand
Life is Grand

With toys they want and toys they need
Toys they've got to have if they ever will succeed
While selling us toys that break
Toys with mistakes our wallets they rape

Life is Grand
Life is Grand

Now you may say that this is bad
For me to sing about things so sad
I must admit it could be worse
Any moment a nuclear bomb could burst

Life is Grand
Life is Grand

With everyone getting aids and cancer
Death ain't coming slower it's just coming faster
With everyone getting aids and cancer
Death ain't coming slower it's just coming faster
