Verse

Alright! My life is bad
There’s no way to deny
OK! My milk is spilled
Now do I want to cry?

I never expected everything
Would always go my way
So when I wake up
I’ll look in the broken mirror
And you’re gonna hear me say:

Chorus 1

Buck up! Go ahead and shave
And face it with a smile
Shut up! Stop your complaining
And do something worthwhile

I won’t slow down just because I got a burn
Or divorce or a cut-off leg
Just because I lost every penny that I ever earned
Doesn’t mean I gotta go and beg

Bridge

So take the bull by the horns
And the horse by the reigns
Face the music and the rain that’s over your parade

You know nothing ever changed just because you sat
And wished real hard it would
So at the end of the day
You’re gonna hear me say
I made the best lemonade I could

Chorus 2

Buck up! Go ahead and shave
And face it with a smile
Shut up! Stop your complaining
And do something worthwhile

Coda

The invitations to my pity party were all retuned to sender
So now I know for my peace of mind
And all the happiness that I’ll ever find
I am my sole defender
