lyrics

Oh, the world owes me a livin', cause I'm wonderful.
Oh, the world owes me a livin', cause I'm magical.
I've been fighting with the world and I think I know the reason why.
Someone simply needs to pay me just for being out of sight.

Oh, the Lord owes me a livin' cause I am his child.
Oh, the Lord owes me a livin' cause I'm meek and mild.
I think God should write my checks; he's got all the money, after all.
He's the one who made my life; how 'bout making it less difficult?

Someone put me on the payroll; I'm completely qualified.
Someone sign me up with that great big sugardaddy in the sky.

'Cause it's too hard to make a livin', no matter how I try.
It's too hard to make a livin' and I'm asking why:
why my child is raised by another when it should be me at her side.
Someone really ought to pay me just for being out of sight.
