[Verse 1]
Well the daylight drags me out of bed
And the nightlife drags me home
In the meantime I drag round half dead
Resting up for later on
Well, I wrack my brain to ease my mind
But I always edge my bet
On the tail of every trend I find
But I don't feel nothing yet
[Chorus]
Looking for the good life
It's just about to make me loose my mind
Looking for the good life
It's keeping me miserable all the time
[Verse 2]
As a child a dream is all it takes
To get you through the night
Now it costs me every dime I make
Just to say I feel alright
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Well, I looked in the books and the movies
And I sat through the TV shows
Got the VCR and jacuzzi
And I stare at the speakers on the stereo
[Bridge]
And my conscience just keeps raging
Until I wish it was back down low
[Chorus][x2]
