No stars in the sky to gild my path
No matter how many friends I've got, I always feel alone
What's the point of having the house key to get in?
Having a bill in my pocket for smokes and pool?
The spring of life is lovely to live
As soon as the sun shines, right after it's raining
To me today's January, it's freezing cold
Seems the whole world teamed up to screw me
I spend hours in the café not knowing where to go
Everything around is so ugly, I just feel like running away
I see myself in the mirror at night, my body's always changing
In the morning I hear the advice the old man has for me
The spring of life is lovely to live
As soon as the sun shines, right after it's raining
To me today's January, it's freezing cold
Seems the whole world teamed up to screw me
I go around on the sly, peeking through windows
Lost on the avenues and found in the alleys
Mom, my first love was a trapeze with no net
Move aside, please, I'm between a rock and a hard place
Can't you see how tough this is? Being young isn't a title
Having to face the future with pimples on my face
Why's everything uncertain, can't it always be like this
If it wasn't for Rock and Roll, what'd become of me
The spring of life is lovely to live
As soon as the sun shines, right after it's raining
To me today's January, it's freezing cold
Seems the whole world teamed up to screw me
