Glory seeker, fortune hound
Don't you ever break it on down?
Ain't you been to school, yeah?
Ain't you learned the rules?
Ain't you paid some dues?
Life you need is fair, fair but so uncool

Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool
Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool
Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool

Rip-off artist shootin' down
If you dig, yeah, you're a clown
Can't you understand, yeah?
Can't you lend a hand?
Can't you be a man?
Life you lead is fair, fair but so uncool

Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool
Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool
Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool

Greedy joker slidin' by
Dealin' Joneses with a high
Don't cha see it's wrong?
Don't cha wait too long
Don't cha hear this song?
Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool

Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool
Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool
Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool

Time is passin', time is gone
Meet your mirror further on
Won't you ever yearn?
Ever yearn to learn?
Won't ya take ya turn, yeah?
Life you lead is fair, fair but so uncool

Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool
Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool
Life is fair, is fair, but so uncool
