It’s all I can do to get up in the mornin’ and get through another day
It’s all I can do just to get off to work and not hurt anyone today
It’s all I can do to get by in this world there’s so many dues to pay
I used to believe I had so much to give but now all I have to say...
Is, this is all I can do

It’s all I can do to come home at night and get myself undressed
It’s all I can do to sleep with the zombies and give my mind a rest
I used to believe I could be anything and make it a big success
My dreams got smaller and smaller Until they were gone
And now I guess... This is all I can do

Oh God, why have You forsaken me?
Please don’t leave me now, Please don’t leave me now
Oh God, why are You so far from me?
Can You save me now? Can You save me now?
From this world of tears...

It’s all I can do to get up in the mornin’ and get through another day
It’s all I can do to sell all my junk, pack up and leave L.A.
There's no future I can see here, the dream has gone away
Don't cry for me Mother, don't shed a tear
I'll probably be back someday,
And this is all I can do.
