[Verse 1]
Signals fly through the air
Who discovered they were there?
Darling, don't be so dramatic
It's not all despair and traffic
Paralysing paradise
Dining with our parasites
Inter-species intercourse
Old land, new rules
[Chorus]
This is life
This is life
This is life
[Verse 2]
Another day, another train
Brain killers kill the pain
Bend down, lick it up
Cut it out, stick it up
Who am I to say a thing?
Look at us developing
Modern day machinery
Gaining opportunity
[Chorus]
This is life
This is life
This is life
[Bridge]
This is life, this is life
Darling, don't you realise?
This is life, this is life
You ain't got to realise
This is life, this is life
This is life
This is life
