Words and Music by Kathryn Pallakoff

lyrics

“Oh it’s hard down in this hole.”
Said the rabbit to the toad
“It ain’t nothing like it seems
Like the rabbit in your dreams.”
“Yeah, I know just what you mean.”

Chorus:
No one ever tells you
No one ever tells you
To smile at your loss
Cuz each one brings
Another toss
Of the coin
You’re the one who changed my world
You’re the one who changed my world

“Well I’ve got warts upon my back.
And today I got attacked
By my lily pad
And try to spend all day
Eating flies
Lord my mouth is f*****g dry.”

Chorus:
No one ever tells you
No one ever tells you
To smile at your loss
Cuz each one brings
Another toss
Of the coin
You’re the one who changed my world
You’re the one who changed my world
