You and I, we're the same as each other |
|
Can't stand to think we're the same as each other |
|
So come over to mine and we'll drink some beer |
|
Get on a bus and get the fuck out of here |
|
Follow a star to a new messiah |
|
Slit his throat for the good of the unborn, |
|
Generations tripped the wire |
|
Made off with our hearts desire |
|
|
|
We've never had it so good |
|
Never had it so good |
|
We've never had it so good, |
|
Life is sweet. |
|
|
|
You're just like cinderella |
|
On the screen in technicolor |
|
Off the chart, you'll be going stellar |
|
You'll be the pepsi cola seller |
|
With lips so full and moist |
|
All your friends'll be queuing up to tell you |
|
"you've got such a lovely voice". |
|
You've got such a lovely voice |
|
|
|
We've never had it so good |
|
Never had it so good |
|
We've never had it so good, |
|
Life is sweet. |
|
|
|
And people die when towers fall |
|
I've tried but I hardly even care at all |
|
I've seen you angry and I've seen you cry |
|
Life goes fitfully flitting by |
|
And I would love to climb a barricade |
|
Like every other boy you know |
|
But the wars at home have been betrayed |
|
By too many boys on barricades |
|
|
|
We've never had it so good |
|
Never had it so good |
|
We've never had it so good, |
|
Life is sweet. |
|
|
|
So spare me a thought when you're old and you're finished |
|
A listing wreck off greenwich village |
|
Write me a letter that I'll never reply to |
|
You know what I'm like better than I do |
|
Tell me about how you sleep at night |
|
Tell me about your consolations |
|
Lie to me, say you still fight |
|
Tell me death will be alright, oh |
|
|
|
We've never had it so good |
|
Never had it so good |
|
We've never had it so good, |
|
Life is sweet. |
|
Life is sweet. |
