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
And you say it's just a question of eliminating obstacles
As you throw your dinner out the kitchen door
And you say "I know how you try
But honey, let's eat out tonight"
And no one said it would be easy
But no one said it'd be this hard
And no one said it would be easy
But no one thought we'd come this far
You can't seem to ever fold up a shirt
And I bring it up and you think I'm a jerk
But I think we're here to stay
And I can't imagine it any other way
And no one said it would be easy
But no one said it'd be this hard
And no one said it would be easy
No one thought we'd come this far
But sometimes, I wonder who he's picturing
When he looks at me
When he looks at me and smiles
And no one said it would be easy
But no one said it'd be this hard
And no one said it would be easy
No one thought we'd come this far
Oh, and look, we've come this far
