The Good Life
I woke up this morning with a case of deja vu
Stumbling out of bed I knew just what I had to do
I showered and shaved and then got dressed
We've all heard the story so you know the rest
I'd like to work half as much if it didn't cost me half my pay
Ten long years I haven't missed a single day
Stuck at a deadend job with a self-righteous boss
It seems he's only worried about the profit and loss
'cept for making sure I'm bearing that heavy cross
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life
I'd like to play my guitar and write music everyday, yeah
I really wish I had time for sex more than twice a day, oh yeah
'Cause I used to have a girlfriend 'til we got wed
The girl can't cook but she's great in bed
Just as long as I'm bringing home the bread
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life
I'm doing the best I can
What it is is what i am
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life
It was a long time ago I think I used to have some friends
They all went to college, now they're counting their dividends
Once in awhile I will run into one or two
They ask they same question, "Man, what's happened to you?"
I respond to them by saying, if you only knew ha ha
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life
I'm doing the best I can
What it is is what i am
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life, yeah yeah
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life, yeah yeah
Stumbling out of bed I knew just what I had to do
I showered and shaved and then got dressed
We've all heard the story so you know the rest
I'd like to work half as much if it didn't cost me half my pay
Ten long years I haven't missed a single day
Stuck at a deadend job with a self-righteous boss
It seems he's only worried about the profit and loss
'cept for making sure I'm bearing that heavy cross
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life
I'd like to play my guitar and write music everyday, yeah
I really wish I had time for sex more than twice a day, oh yeah
'Cause I used to have a girlfriend 'til we got wed

Just as long as I'm bringing home the bread
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life
I'm doing the best I can
What it is is what i am
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life

I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life, yeah yeah
I'm living the good life
I'm living the good life, yeah yeah
