Life Is A Scream Lyrics

She said to me oh I don't know what you mean
all I'm trying to do is
trying to make your scene
I said to her no way baby life ain't what it seem
well don't you know baby that life is a scream - aagh
she came up to me in her high fashion and sheen
well don't you know that she was trying to come clean
I said to her no way baby life ain't what it seem
well don't you know baby that life's a scream - aagh
she said to me oh I love it when you're mean
don't you know it's boring when it's quiet and serene
I said to her no way baby life ain't what it seem
got to get it through your head that life is a scream - aaheeii!
