(Scat)
Oh life {is so peculiar},
(You get so wet in the rain), You know it too? (mm-hmm).
You get so warm in the sunshine,
(Get my sun tan) (It doesn't pay to complain), I never compain.
When I get up each morning, there's nothing to breathe but air, (Yeah)
(And when I look in the mirror, there's nothing to comb but hair),
And when I sit down to breakfast, there's nothing to eat but food,
{Life is so peculiar but you can't stay home and brood}.
Oh, life(Tell 'em about it pops) is so peculiar, t
He desert has only got sand, (And that's grand).
The oceans only got water,
(And you can't drink it all up), you never know where you stand.
(When I get out to dinner, there's nothing to wear but clothes),
(Whenever I get sleepy, there's nothing to do but doze), Yeah
(Whenever I get thirsty, there's nothing to do but drink),
{Life is no peculiar that it makes you stop and think},
Yes, life (boop-a-doo-wa-boo-waa), is so peculiar, (It sure is).
A fork belongs with the knife (It sure does)
(Corn beef is lost without cabbage),
I love cabbage, a husband should have a wife,
(Yes), {life is so peculiar, but as everybody says}.
{That's life}.
*************** *
(Life), Yes life (it's so peculiar),
A-hugh (a bird can usually sing). A bird, I do too.
(A pearl is made by an oyster), New Orleans? . (Rampart Street)
(You can't be sure of a thing)
When I get tired of restin' there's
Nothing to do but walk (walk it off pop).
And when I don't care to listen there's
Nothing to do but talk (keep you big mouth shut).
When I'm up in the airplane there's nothing to do but fly (mm-hmm)
{Life is so peculiar but I often wonder why}
Oh, life, {boop-a-doo-wa-boo-waa}, is so peculiar, (sure is),
A fork belongs with a knife you know, (mm-mm)
(Corn beef is lost without cabbage), leftover cabbage? (Yeah).
A husband should have a wife.
(Yeah), {life is so peculiar,
But what everybody says that's
Life}. One more for me Jim ... {that's life}.
Let me hear it one time ... {that's life}.
All together ... {That's life}, yeaaah.
