Lyrics

It's a Wonderful Life

[Verse 1]

I am the only one

Can ride that horse, th'yonder

I'm full of bees who died at sea

[Chorus]

It's a wonderful life

It's a wonderful life

[Verse 2]

I wore a rooster's blood

When it flew like doves

I'm a bog of poison frogs

[Chorus]

It's a wonderful life

It's a wonderful life

[Bridge]

I'm the dog that ate your birthday cake

[Chorus]

It's a wonderful life

It's a wonderful life

It's a wonderful life
