The Good Life
Sha la la la (hehe)
The good life is not for me
Don't need to "buy one get one free"
I would rather wait longer in line
Pay a little more for good imported wine
I can live without forty different choices
Would rather call my bank and hear real voices
Rolling back prices to virtually free
No, the good life is not for me
Don't need a V8 to get me there fast
Don't want a digital trail of my detailed past
I'll take my chances with my security
I could live without the shit that's on TV
Don't need to be protected from terrorist harm
I'll stick with small expensive vegetables from my local organic farm
Don't need others to die in the name of liberty
No my friends, the good life is not for me
No, the good life is not for me
