It's all or nothing
 And nothing's all I ever get
 Everytime I turn it on
 I burn it up and burn it out

 It's always something
 There's always something going wrong
 That's the only guarantee
 That's what this is all about

 It's a never ending attack
 Everything's a lie and that's a fact
 Life is a lemon and I want my money back!

 And all the morons
 And all the stooges with their coins
 They're the ones who make [bad word]  It's not a game--it's just a rout

 There's desparation
 There's desparation in the air
 It leaves a stain on all your clothes
 And no detergent gets it out

 And we're always slipping [bad word] the cracks
 Then the movie's over--fade to black
 Life is a lemon and I want my money back!

 I want my money back
 I want my money back

 What about love?
 It's Defective!
 It's always breaking in half

 What about ?
 It's Defective!
 It's never built to really last

 What about family?
 It's Defective!
 All the batteries are shot

 What about friends?
 They're Defective!
 All the parts are out of stock

 What about hope?
 It's Defective!
 It's corroded and decayed

 Waht about faith?
 It's Defective!
 It's tattered and it's frayed

 What about your Gods?
 They're Defective!
 They forgot the warranty

 What about your town?
 It's Defective!
 It's a dead end street to me

 What about your school?
 It's Defective!
 It's a pack of useless lies

 What about your work?
 It's Defective!
 It's a crock and then you die

 What about your childhood?
 It's Defective!
 It's dead and buried in the past

 What about your future?
 It's Defective!
 And you can shove it up your [bad word] 

 I want my money back
 I want my money back

 It's all or nothing
 And nothing's all I ever get 
 Everytime I turn it on
 I burn it up and burn it out

 It's a never ending attack 
 Everything's a lie and that's a fact
 Life is a lemon and I want my money back!

 And we're always slipping [bad word] the cracks
 Then the movie's over--fade to black
 Life is a lemon and I want my money back!
