Who said that life is meant to be fair, the better you are,
the less they care
Who said that life is meant to be fair?
Who said that life is meant to be fair, you help someone
out they don’t offer to share
You wait to sit down, someone sits in your chair
And you think they could stop it if only they tried
You think they are sorry when somebody died
But they just want us quiet with a minimum done
They hear the word justice, they reach for their gun
Who said that life is meant to be fair,
you’re judged by the price
of the clothes that you wear
You don’t know the right people, you don’t have a prayer
Who said that life is meant to be fair,
you get hacked in the shins if you show any flair
You break your neck, we stop and stare
You’ve got it all to lose if you’ve anything left to give
Death is hard, then you live
Who said that life is meant to be fair,
someone will love you then say ‘Nothing’s there’
The kiss on the lips becomes a stroke of the hair
It’s the way the world is the strong take from the weak
The rules go out of the window if the ship springs a leak
They know how to stop you, if you dare to speak
Some of us think that it all levels out,
Monday there’s floods, Tuesday there’s drought
In the end we all get what we deserve,
some god lays the table and dinner is served
But how many today got stabbed in the back?
What good is karma when you’ve run out of track
What good is heaven, you’re not coming back
You’ve got it all to lose if you’ve anything left to give
Death is hard, then you live
Who said that life was meant to be fair,
there are things that we know are wrong everywhere
I said I didn’t see it, you said you didn’t care
Who said that life was meant to be fair,
you’ll lose what you’ve got if you easily scare
I tried to change it, but in the end I didn’t dare
