Baby, life's what you make it,
Can't escape it.
Baby, yesterday's favourite: don't you hate it?
(Everything's alright)
Life's what you make it.
(Everything's alright).

Baby, life's what you make it,
Don't backdate it.
Baby, don't try to shade it:
Beauty is naked.
(Everything's alright)
Life's what you make it.
(Everything's alright)
What you make it.

Baby, life's what you make it,
Celebrate it.
Anticipate it.
Yesterday's faded.
Nothing can change it.
Life's what you make it.
(Everything's alright)
Life's what you make it.
(Everything's alright)
Life's what you make it.
(Everything's alright).
Yeah, it's alright.
