The Stranglers

Everyday you're working like a slave
Sweating buckets hoping that you get it right.
Will it be as tough tomorrow
have to wait and see -
Life shows no mercy.
Everyday your love is getting warmer
Just look at her andl love her
did you get it right?
Will she soothe your brow with kisses only meant for thee?
She'll show no mercy
she'll show no mercy.
And when you hold her close to you
Just when you're feeling good it's true.
Life shows no mercy
life shows no mercy
Life shows no mercy
life shows no mercy.
Everybody has some secret wishes
Just keep your gngers crossed
maybe they'll all come true.
But don't worry if they just remain a fantasy -
Life shows no mercy.
