‘Stead of treated,
[ORPHANS]
We get tricked!
[DUFFY]
‘Stead of kisses,
[ORPHANS]
We get kicked!

Got no folks to speak of, so,
It’s the hard-knock row we how

[ANNIE]
Don’t it feel like the wind is always howlin?
[KATE AND TESSIE]
Don’t it seem like there’s never any light?
[ANNIE and MOLLY]
What’s a day you don’t wanna throw the towel in?
[PEPPER,JULY]
It’s easier than putting up a fight.
[ANNIE]
No one’s there when your dreams at night are creepy!
No one cares if you grow or if you shrink!
No one dries when your eyes get wet and weepy
[ALL]
From the crying you would think this place would sink!
Ohhhh!!!!!!!
Empty belly life!
Rotten smelly life!
Full of sorrow life!
No tomorrow life!
[MOLLY]
Santa Claus we never see,
[ANNIE]
Santa Claus? What’s that? Who’s he?
[ALL]
No one cares for you a smidge
When you’re in an orphanage
It’s the hard knock life
[MOLLY]
(Making a whistling sound and imitating Miss Hannigan)
You’ll stay up ’til this dump shines like the top of the Chrysler Building.
[ORPHANS (Except Molly)]
Yank the whiskers from her chin
Jab her with a safety Pin
Make her drink a Mickey Finn
I love you Miss Hannigan.
[Molly]
Get to work!
Strip them beds!
Scrub that floor!
Polish my shoes!
And I mean.
Start.
NOW!
[ALL]
It’s the hard-knock life for us
It’s the hard-knock life for us
No one cares for you a smidge
When you’re in an orphanage It’s The Hard Knock Life!
It’s the Hard Knock Life!
IT’S THE HARD KNOCK LIFE!!!
