Orphans

It's the hard-knock life for us!

It's the hard-knock life for us!

Annie

'Steada treated,

Orphans

We get tricked!

Annie

'Steada kisses,

Orphans

We get kicked!

All

It's the hard-knock life!

Got no folks to speak of, so,

It's the hard-knock row we how!

Annie

Cotton blankets,

Orphans

'Steada of wool!

Annie

Empty Bellies

Orphans

'Steada of full!

All

It's the hard-knock life!

Annie

Don't if feel like the wind is always howln'?

Kate and Tessie

Don't it seem like there's never any light!

Duffy and July

Once a day, don't you wanna throw the towel in?

Molly and Pepper

It's easier than puttin' up a fight.

Annie

No one's there when your dreams at night get creepy!

No one cares if you grow...of if you shrink!

No one dries when your eyes get wet an' weepy!

All

From all the cryin' you would think this place's a sink!

Ohhhh!!!!!!!

Empty belly life!

Rotten smelly life!

Full of sorrow life!

No tomorrow life!

Molly

Santa Claus we never see

Annie

Santa Claus, what's that who's he?

All

No one cares for you a smidge

When you're in an orphanage!

Molly

(Making a whistling sound and imitating Miss. Hannigan)

You'll stay up till this dump shines like the top of the chrysler

building.

Orphans

Yank the whiskers from her chin

Jab her with a safety Pin

Make her drink a mickey finn

I love you, Miss Hannigan

Molly

(whistle)

Get to work!

(whistle)

Strip them beds!

(whistle)

I said get to work!

All

It's the hard-knock life for us

It's the hard-knock life for us

No one cares for you a smidge

When your in an orphanage

It's the hard-knock life

It's the hard-knock life

It's the hard-knock life!
