Lyrics

What do you do with a B.A. in English? What is my life going to be? Four years of college and plenty of knowledge Have earned me this useless degree I can't pay the bills yet 'cause I have no skills yet The world is a big scary place But somehow I can't shake the feeling I might make A difference to the human race Morning, Brian Hi, Kate Monster How's life? Disappointing What's the matter? The catering company laid me off Oh, I'm sorry! Me too! I mean, look at me! I'm ten years out of college And I always thought, oh What? No, it sounds stupid Aww, come on! When I was little I thought I would be What? A big comedian on late night TV Ha-ha! Oh! But now I'm thirty-two and as you can see I'm not Nope! Oh well Mmm It sucks to be me No It sucks to be me No It sucks to be broke and unemployed And turning thirty-three, it sucks to be me You think your life sucks? I think so Your problems aren't so bad! I'm kinda pretty and pretty damn smart You are! Thanks! I like romantic things like music and art And as you know I have a gigantic heart So why don't I have a boyfriend? Fuck! It sucks to be me Me too It sucks to be me It sucks to be me, it sucks to be Brian And Kate To not have a job! To not have a date! It sucks to be me Hey, Rod, Nicky, can you settle something for us? Do you have a second? Ah, certainly Whose life sucks more? Brian's or mine? Ours! We live together We're as close as people can get We've been the best of buddies Ever since the day we met So he knows lots of ways to make me really upset Oh every day is an aggravation Come on, that's an exaggeration! You leave your clothes out You put your feet on my chair Oh yeah? You do such anal things like ironing your underwear You make that very small apartment we share a hell So do you, that's why I'm in hell too! It sucks to be me! No, it sucks to be me! It sucks to be me! It sucks to be me! Is there anybody here it doesn't suck to be? It sucks to be me! Why you all so happy? Because our lives suck! Your lives suck? I hearing you correctly? Ha! I coming to this country for opportunities Tried to work in Korean deli but I am Japanese But with hard work I earn two master's degrees in social work! And now I a therapist! But I have no clients! And I have an unemployed fiance! And we have lots of bills to pay! It suck to be me! It suck to be me! I say it sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-sucka-suck! It suck to be me Excuse me? Hey there Sorry to bother you, but I'm looking for a place to live Why you looking the way out here? Well, I started at Avenue A But so far everything is out of my price range But this neighborhood looks a lot cheaper! Oh, and look a 'For Rent' sign! You need to talk to the superintendent Let me get him Great, thanks! Yo, Gary! I'm comin' I'm comin' Oh my God! It's Gary Coleman! Yes I am! I'm Gary Coleman, from TV's Diff'rent Strokes I made a lotta money that got stolen by my folks! Now I'm broke and I'm the butt of everyone's jokes But I'm here the superintendent! On Avenue Q It sucks to be you You win! It sucks to be you I feel better now! Try having people stopping you to ask you 'What you talkin' 'bout, Willis?' It gets old! It sucks to be you on Avenue Q (Sucks to be me) On Avenue Q (Sucks to be you) On Avenue Q (Sucks to be us) But not when we're together We're together here on Avenue Q! We live on Avenue Q! Our friends do too! 'Til our dreams come true We live on Avenue Q! This is real life! We live on Avenue Q You're gonna love it We live on Avenue Q! Here's your keys! Welcome to Avenue Q!
