Violent Femmes - Life Is A Scream

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!
