LYRICS
Oh, life is so peculiar
You get so wet in the rain
You get so warm in the sunshine
It doesn’t pay to complain
When I get up each morning there’s nothing to breathe but air
When I look in the mirror there’s nothing to comb but hair
When I sit down to breakfast there’s nothing to eat but food
Life is so peculiar but you can’t stay home and brood
Yes, life is so peculiar,
The desert’s only got sand
The oceans only got water
You never know where you stand
You never know where you stand
When I go out to dinner there’s nothing to wear but clothes
Whenever I get sleepy there’s nothing to do but doze
Whenever I get thirsty there’s nothing to do but drink
Life is no peculiar that it makes you stop and think
Whenever I get sleepy there’s nothing to do but doze
Whenever I get thirsty there’s nothing to do but drink
Life is no peculiar that it makes you stop and think
That’s life
a fork belongs with the knife
Corn beef is lost without cabbage
A husband should have a wife
Life is so peculiar but as everybody says,
“That’s life”
Corn beef is lost without cabbage
A husband should have a wife
Life is so peculiar but as everybody says,
“That’s life”
Piano solo
Oh, life is so peculiar
A bird can usually sing
A pearl is made by an oyster
You can’t be sure of a thing
When I get tired of resting there’s nothing to do but walk
When I don’t care to listen there’s nothing to do but talk
When I’m up in my airplane there’s nothing to do but fly
Life is so peculiar and I often wonder why
That’s life! – is so peculiar
a fork belongs with the knife
Corn beef is lost without cabbage
A husband should have a wife
Life is so peculiar but as everybody says,
“That’s life”
a fork belongs with the knife
Corn beef is lost without cabbage
A husband should have a wife
Life is so peculiar but as everybody says,
“That’s life”
lyrics by Johnny Burke (1908-1964)
