It's obvious the trouble we're in When your father pulls up in a Mercedes Benz He says he just happened to be in the neighborhood But before he leaves he slips the landlord the rent You say, "It's just a question of eliminating obstacles" As you throw your dinner out the kitchen door You say, "I know how you try" But honey, let's eat out tonight No one said it would be easy But no one said it'd be this hard No one said it would be easy No one thought we'd come this far You can't seem to ever fold up a shirt I bring it up and you think I'm a jerk But I think we're here to stay I can't imagine it any other way No one said it would be easy But no one said it'd be this hard No one said it would be easy No one thought we'd come this far Sometimes I wonder who he's picturing When he looks at me and smiles No one said it would be easy But no one said it'd be this hard No one said it would be easy No one thought we'd come this far Oh, and look we've come this far
