I've got respect from the community
  I've got my bridge game to look forward to
  I've got this chance, a golden opportunity
  As long as I keep doing what I'm supposed to
  
  You see my wife and kids, they depend on me
  To provide them with nothing but the best
  I feel it's my duty, my obligation
  to live up to the standards society suggusts
  
  So I'll keep on working for their benefit
  And I'll keep on drinking
  I'll keep on believing in my life
  
  Another year of slaving and smiling, buying and trading
  Living the life of a wealthy man
  But somehow I don't feel so rich inside
  But that doesn't make sense
  I just had a two week vacation
  As soon as I get this operation
  taken care of, I'll start enjoying
  the good things in life
  
  So I'll keep on working for the benefits
  And I'll keep on drinking
  I'll keep believing in my life
  
  When the pity spins your mind,
  Darkness fills your heart,
  And I won't be around
  When you're feeling all alone
  Then you'll know it's time,
  To go into the ground
  
  When the pity spins your mind,
  Darkness fills your heart,
  And I won't be around
  
  I've got my family, friends, and associates
  To stand by me as the threshold comes near
  Within their faces I see grave concern
  As I ask myself if their thoughts are sincere
  
  After all these years of being complacent
  What do I get? Tenderness, affection, a true sense of love?
  No! Just a pain through a body chalk full of regret
  
  I'll keep on believing my life still has value
  And I'll keep on laughing
  Why can't I stop laughing? I can't stop the laughing.
