The song was a hit in most of the European countries where it was released, peaking at number one in Sweden, Austria, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Belgium and number two in the UK. In France, the song was marketed twice : first in 1992, then in 1993 because the song was used in a TV advert for feminine hygiene accessories (as it was in the UK in 1992), thus giving to the single a second career. According to Infodisc website, about 91,000 copies of the single were sold in France. The song also charted in the U.S. where it reached number 3 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs, number 4 on the Billboard Hot Dance Music/Maxi-Singles Sales and number 88 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was also featured in the 1993 Bollywood film Baazigar.
It's My Life
Dr. Alban Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Set me free, what's that crap papa-know-it-all?
I got my own life, you got your own life
Live your own life and set me free
Mind your business and leave my business
You know everything papa-know-it-all
Very little knowledge is dangerous
Stop bugging me, stop bothering me
Stop fighting me, stop yelling me, it's my life
It's my life (it's my life, my worries)
It's my life (it's my life, my problems)
It's my life (it's my life, my worries)
It's my life (it's my life, my problems)
It's my life, do you understand?
I live the way I want to live
I make decisions day and night
Show me signs and good examples
Stop telling me how to run your business
Take a trip to east and west
You find that you don't know anything
Every's getting tired of you
Sometimes you have to look and listen
You can even learn from me
Little knowledge is dangerous, it's my life
It's my life (it's my life, my worries)
It's my life (it's my life, my problems)
It's my life (it's my life, my worries)
It's my life (it's my life, my problems)
It's my life, set me free
So you bed, so you lie
What you see is what you get
Listen to people and sort things out
Things I do I do them no more
Things I say I say them no more
Changes come once in life
Stop bugging me, stop bothering me
Stop bugging me, stop fussing me
Stop fighting me, stop yelling me
Stop telling me, stop seeing me, it's my life
It's my life (it's my life, my worries)
It's my life (it's my life, my problems)
It's my life (it's my life, my worries)
It's my life (it's my life, my problems)
It's my life (it's my life)
It's my life (it's my life)
It's my life (oh, oh, oh)
It's my life
It's my life (stop bugging me, stop bothering me)
It's my life (stop fussing me, stop yelling at me)
It's my life (it's my life)
It's my life (it's my life)
It's my life (stop bugging me, stop bothering me)
It's my life (stop fussing me, stop yelling at me)
It's my life (it's my life)
It's my life
