I needed some time, time to myself   Like maybe I'd like to escape   I wait on the rhyme, dead on the bed   And then it hits me in the face      Don't walk away, I'm better now   It's just a song was comin'   But now that it's here   We're in the clear   I gotta keep on runnin'      And I couldn't help myself   Everyone's looking for something, sometime   No I couldn't help myself   Think life is rough?   It's ruffles!      [piano breakdown]      If life deals you cards nobody wants   Don't give up so   Easy to get whatever you want   You just have to      Visualize the future   Picture yourself in the mirror of your mind   This is how dreams come true, oh   Life is ruffles   It works every time, every time, every time      Works every time!      [piano interlude]      Life is... ruffles! Yeah!      Life is... ruffles!      Life is... ruffles! Yeah!      ...      [piano outro]
