All through life
you take chances all the time
situation, do or die
all frustration, no reply
till you die
life never treats you kind
it's problems, fill your mind
(Chorus) Life isn't fair
when you're going nowhere
on a wing and a prayer
life isn't fair
when you're going nowhere
on a wing and a prayer
no one said it would be fair
It's our fate
life's full of give and hate
no place for a mistake
no chance for those who beg
