Verse

Alright! My life is badThere's no way to denyOK! My milk is spilledNow do I want to cry?I never expected everythingWould always go my waySo when I wake upI'll look in the broken mirrorAnd you're gonna hear me say:

Chorus 1

Buck up! Go ahead and shaveAnd face it with a smileShut up! Stop your complainingAnd do something worthwhileI won't slow down just because I got a burnOr divorce or a cut-off legJust because I lost every penny that I ever earnedDoesn't mean I gotta go and beg

Bridge

So take the bull by the hornsAnd the horse by the reignsFace the music and the rain that's over your parade

You know nothing ever changed just because you satAnd wished real hard it wouldSo at the end of the dayYou're gonna hear me sayI made the best lemonade I could

Chorus 2

Buck up! Go ahead and shaveAnd face it with a smileShut up! Stop your complainingAnd do something worthwhile

Coda

The invitations to my pity party were all returned to senderSo now I know for my peace of mindAnd all the happiness that I'll ever findI am my sole defender
