That's Life - taken from actual briefings:

On NATO
You may think it's something
I ought to know,
But I happen not to.
That's life.

On Reporters
If you do something,
Somebody's not going
To agree with it.
That's life.

On the Budget
If you do anything,
Someone's not going
To like it and
That's life.

Look bumpy? Sure.
But you pick up
And go on.
That's life.

On Democracy
People elected
Those people to office.
That's what they think, and
That's life.

On People
They're going to have
Some impact on
What happens in that country
And that's not wrong.
That's life.

On Criticism
It makes it complicated.
Sometimes, it makes
It difficult.
That's life.
