It S The Hard Knock Life lyrics

It`s the hard-knock life for us!
It`s the hard-knock life for us!

[ANNIE]
`Steada treated,

[ORPHANS]
We get tricked!

[ANNIE]
`Steada kisses,

[ORPHANS]
We get kicked!

[ALL]
It`s the hard-knock life!
Got no folks to speak of, so,
It`s the hard-knock row we how!

[ANNIE]
Cotton blankets,

[ORPHANS]
`Steada of wool!

[ANNIE]
Empty Bellies

[ORPHANS]
`Steada of full!

[ALL]
It`s the hard-knock life!

[ANNIE]
Don`t if feel like the wind is always howl`n?

[KATE AND TESSIE]
Don`t it seem like there`s never any light!

[DUFFY AND JULY]
Once a day, don`t you wanna throw the towel in?

[MOLLY AND PEPPER]
It`s easier than puttin` up a fight.

[ANNIE]
No one`s there when your dreams at night get creepy!
No one cares if you grow...of if you shrink!
No one dries when your eyes get wet an` weepy!

[ALL]
>From all the cryin` you would think this place`s a sink!
Ohhhh!!!!!!!
Empty belly life!
Rotten smelly life!
Full of sorrow life!
No tomorrow life!

[MOLLY]
Santa Claus we never see

[ANNIE]
Santa Claus, what`s that?
Who`s he?

[ALL]
No one cares for you a smidge
When you`re in an orphanage!

[MOLLY]
(Making a whistling sound and imitating Miss. Hannigan)
You`ll stay up till this dump shines
like the top of the Chrysler Building.

[ORPHANS]
Yank the whiskers from her chin
Jab her with a safety Pin
Make her drink a mickey finn
I love you, Miss Hannigan

[MOLLY]
(whistle) Get to work!
(whistle) Strip them beds!
(whistle) I said get to work!

[ALL]
It`s the hard-knock life for us
It`s the hard-knock life for us
No one cares for you a smidge
When your in an orphanage
It`s the hard-knock life
It`s the hard-knock life
It`s the hard-knock life!
