That's What It's Like

lyrics

THAT’S WHAT IT’S LIKE
(Mark Laurent)

Well the dog jumped up and bit me
my bird lay down and died
I ran my kitty over
as I backed out of the drive
that’s what it’s like, that’s what it’s like
when feeling down and troubled
that’s what it’s like.

My baby’s gonna leave me
she told me just today
said my best friend treats her beter
besides he gets better paid
that’s what it’s like…

Is God still up in heaven
is he anywhere around
I saw a guy who looked just like him
he was hitching out of town
that’s what it’s like…

There’s philosophies and religions
they all try to save my soul
I might just a well go down into my basement
and dig holes
that’s what it’s like…

Can anybody answer me?
can anybody tell?
lord I think so much about heaven
man it makes me feel like hell
that’s what it’s like…

Well I really don’t care too much
about the answer anyway
why should I worry about tomorrow
when I can be depressed today?
that’s what it’s like…
