Bad News and Bad Breaks Lyrics

Bad news, if he could choose,
Would he refuse to be the bearer?
It seems what he has to do
Could not be any clearer.
It's a job he can't neglect.
Its consequences will affect.
I'm glad that I'm not in his shoes.
He's the bearer of bad news.
What can you do?
He's got an ugly job to do!

Oh! There's always something that can set you back.
That's the way life is.

Bad breaks, for heaven's sakes,
And mistakes he couldn't count.
To put it politely, it's a very large amount.
Whenever he gets involved
You end up with problems you can't solve.
You're cleaning up the mess he makes.
He's a victim of bad breaks.
What can you say?
Will he always be this way?

Oh! There's always something that can set you back.
That's the way life is.

It's not sunny everyday,
And there are bumps on every road.
Toss in one more dumb cliche,
Like life can be a heavy load.
Said life can be a heavy load now!

Oh! There's always something that can set you back
That's the way life is...
