Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Life in this world is a great struggle,
for both the young and old.
And even those who have great riches
have troubles of their own.
Rich men envy poor men,
poor men envy the rich.
Therefore what is the sense in envying your neighbour?
VERSE 2
Your talent is as good as mine,
Strive to develop same.
And I am sure there is nobody
who has not got his own.
Trouble starts when painters
try to be prime Ministers,
when in truth they are sure they are
not made for this.
