Every day you're working like a slave
 Sweating buckets hoping that you get it right
 Will it be as tough tomorrow
 Have to wait and see
 Life shows no mercy

 Every day your love is getting warmer
 Just look at her and love her did you get it right
 Will she soothe your brow with kisses
 Only meant for thee
 She'll show no mercy
 She'll show no mercy

 And when you hold her close to you
 Just when you're feeling good it's [bad word] 
 Life shows no mercy
 Life shows no mercy
 Life shows no mercy
 Life shows no mercy

 Everybody has some secret wishes
 Just keep your fingers crossed, maybe they'll [bad word] [bad word] 
 But don't worry if they just remain a fantasy
 Life shows no mercy

 Everybody seems the same all over
 The search is on for love [bad word] constantly
 If [bad word] your way tomorrow, count yourself lucky
 Life shows no mercy
 Life shows no mercy

 And when you hold her close to you
 Just when you're feeling good it's [bad word] 
 Life shows no mercy
 Life shows no mercy
 Life shows no mercy
 Life shows no mercy
