The boy pretending to be an orphan

It's a hard knock life for me!
It's a hard knock life for me!



'Steada lovin', I get work!
Mama's takin' pictures so I don't shirk!



It's the hard knock life!
Sweeping off my grandpa's deck,
Gettin' sunburned on my neck!



It's the hard knock life!
Droolin' on my chest 'cause I got no shirt,
Droolin' 'cause I'm just a little squirt!


It's a hard knock life!

(Please note: This was a very enjoyable day for the boy. He does indeed get lots of loving and the only work he has to do is to grow and try to be good. And no, he did not get sunburned sweeping the deck, it was just a funny rhyme.)
