People run and carry on like it's understood
Out on a limb and so in the dark
And their faces show no sign so good is the bluff
I'm learning fast these days but not fast enough
Well I've heard of bearing up and stiff upper lip
But they're not joking and I'm losing kip
So hard to get through, so hard to please you
You my friend
Well I think it must be me they can't all be mad
They must have something in mind that I've never had
You sit tight I'll follow suit and you won't be moved
I wonder sometimes what we're trying to prove
So hard to get through, so hard to please you
You my friend
Now you play the underdog but don't give me that line
No you go your way and I will go mine
I can't bend not anymore you've done it this time
I'll get off your back and you get off mine
So hard to get through, so hard to please you
So hard to get through, so hard to please you
