Hey mum and dad I write to tell you My life is not an open door You think you got it made Til something breaks you down But don't worry I'm doing alright Got no job but tomorrow I'll work it out Life's a roller coaster ride It's a story untold What awaits you can never know Life is such a mystery It's a puzzle undone You can never anticipate The way it's meant to be There was a man Poor and homeless I read he won the lottery He bought a house Got married had it all Last night he was hit by a car Suddenly your world can turn upside down Life's a roller coaster ride It's a story untold What awaits you can never know Life is such a mystery It's a puzzle undone You can never anticipate The way it's meant to be It's funny the way Situations can change from day to day Just don't let it break you down In the end of the day you can make it through in a way it's up to you It's a story untold What awaits you can never know Life is such a mystery It's a story untold What awaits you can never know Life is such a mystery It's a puzzle undone You can never anticipate The way it's meant to be
