    A song that will surprise you with its humorous yet truthful lyrics and hauntingly hip musical treatment. You will hear Sting's influence on Jim Gailloreto's soaring soprano sax part along with the brilliant guitar of Fareed Haque, who has played on Sting's recordings.

    Story Behind the Song
    I had a friend who was constantly complaining about something, everything, everyone. Even therapy couldn't get this person out of their self-imposed funk. "It Sucks To Be You" came to me rather quickly and once we were in the studio it too only a few hours to track. Most people were put off by the title but upon hearing it found it to be very hip and quite moving.

    Lyrics
    Floods and tornados, a world of upheavals
    just cant compete with your lifes little evils

    your grass isnt green and your bed isnt made
    you lie in the sun but your heads in the shade

    CHORUS: man, it sucks to be you....you.....you.......it sucks to be you

    trouble behind you, trouble ahead
    good karma escapes you, cant get out of bed

    you hold the candle, you take the cake
    and youre wearing me out with the noise that you make

    CHORUS: man, it sucks to be you....you.....you.......it sucks to be you

    BRIDGE: just look around you
    soak up the good news
    you got no right to sing the blues

    The sun is too hot and the rain is too wet
    and the cold just gets colder the older you get

    Well, life is a movie, the will to pretend
    still you wait for the good guy to die in the end

    CHORUS: man, it sucks to be you....you.....you.......it sucks to be you
