Song by John Gallagher, Jr. & Boys<br /><br>

MORITZ<br>

God, I dreamed there was an angel<br>

Who could hear me through the wall<br>

As I cried out, like, in Latin “This is so not life at all<br>

Help me out, out of this nightmare.”<br>

Then I heard her silver call<br>

She said, “Just give it time, kid. I come to one and all.”<br>

<br>

She said, “Give me that hand, please, and the itch you can’t control.<br>

Let me teach you how to handle all the sadness in your soul.<br>

Oh, we’ll work that silver magic, <br>

Then we’ll aim it all the wall.”<br>

She said, “Love may make you blind, kid, but I wouldn’t mind at all.”<br>

<br>

ALL<br>

It’s the bitch of living<br>

<br>

OTTO<br>

The bitch, just the bitch<br>

<br>

ALL<br>

With nothing but your hand<br>

<br>

OTTO<br>

Just the bitch, yeah<br>

<br>

ALL<br>

Just the bitch of living<br>

As someone you can’t stand<br>

<br>

GEORG<br>

See, each night it’s, like, fantastic<br>

Tossing, turning without rest<br>

‘Cause my days at the piano<br>

With my teacher and her breasts<br>

And the music’s, like, the one thing<br>

I can’t even get at all<br>

And those breasts!<br>

I mean, God, please, just let those apples fall<br>

<br>

ALL<br>

It’s the bitch of living<br>

<br>

OTTO<br>

The bitch!<br>

<br>

ALL<br>

With nothing going on, nothing going on<br>

Just the bitch of living<br>

Asking: What went wrong?<br>

Do they think we want this?<br>

Oh, who knows!<br>

<br>

ERNST<br>

See, there’s showering in gym class<br>

<br>

HANSCHEN<br>

Bobby Maler, he’s the best<br>

Look so nasty in those khakis<br>

<br>

ERNST<br>

God, my whole life’s like some test<br>

<br>

OTTO<br>

Then there’s Marianna Wheelan<br>

As if she’d return my call<br>

<br>

HANSCHEN<br>

It’s like, just kiss some ass, man<br>

Then you can screw ‘em all<br>

<br>

MELCHIOR<br>

It’s the bitch of living<br>

And living in your head<br>

It’s the bitch of living<br>

And sensing God is dead<br>

<br>

ALL<br>

It’s the bitch of living<br>

And trying to get ahead<br>

It’s the bitch of living<br>

Just getting out of bed<br>

It’s the bitch of living<br>

And getting what you get<br>

It’s the bitch of living<br>

<br>

MELCHIOR<br>

And knowing this is it<br>

<br>

ALL<br>

God, is this it?<br>

This can’t be it<br>

Oh God, what a bitch!<br>

<br>
