We’re All Just Trying to Get By

[Verse 1]

Through the airports and train stations

Of the multiplex of nations

All the creatures of creation

All the fishes and crustaceans

To satisfy their sense of station

Through the rules and regulations

And just get by

[Chorus 1]

We're all just trying to get by

We're all just trying to get by

We're all just trying to survive

[Verse 2]

All the time ants in the sand

All the insects in the land

All the wildlife on the plain

Jungle plants expecting rain

All are playing the same game

In the struggle to remain

And just get by

[Chorus 2]

We're all trying to get by

We're all just trying to get by

We're all just trying to survive

[Guitar instrumental solo]

[Bridge to Outro Chorus]

Trying to ...

Trying to ...

Trying to survive

[Outro Chorus]

We're all just trying to get by

We're all just trying to survive

We're all just trying to get by

We're all just trying to survive
