“The Good Life”
I long for the good life…for the American Dream
Just like F. Scott Fitzgerald or the late James Dean
I love the illusion…it’s just one of those things
A transparent addiction, an insatiable need
But if there’s one thing I don’t need right now
It’s the guilt I feel when I don’t do
Oh, the things that put my life in doubt
Or the fear of failure fallin’ through

I live for the moment, I take what is mine
Without reservation, I would rob my bloodline
I look for Love’s pleasures, Lust’s complex design
I take it in stride for now, one day at a time
But if there’s one thing I can do without
It’s the guilt I feel when I don’t do
All the things that put my life in doubt
Or the fear of failure fallin’ through

Fallin through, Fallin through
Fallin’ through, down on me down on you

I long for the good life…for the American Dream
Just like F. Scott Fitzgerald or the late great James Dean
Oh, the good life, the good life, the good life
Oh, the good life, the good life, yeah…
Oh, the good life, the good life, the good life
Oh, the good life, the good life, yeah…
