The Good Life - Acoustic/Live by Weezer Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2010

[Intro]
Haha
This next one's off our next record called Pinkerton
It's called "The Good Life"

[Verse 1]
When I look in the mirror
I can't believe what I see
Tell me, who's that funky dude
Staring back at me?
Broken, beaten down
Can't even get around
Without an old man cane
I fall and hit the ground
Shivering in the cold
I'm bitter and alone

[Verse 2]
Excuse the bitching
I shouldn't complain
I should have no feeling
'Cause feeling is pain
As everything I need
Is denied me
And everything I want
Is taken away from me
But who do I got to blame?
Nobody but me
[Chorus]
And I don't wanna be an old man anymore
It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor
Shaking booty, making sweet love all the night
It's time I got back to the good life
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back, yeah

[Verse 3]
Screw this crap, I've had it (I've had it)
I ain't no Mr. Cool
I'm a pig, I'm a dog (Woof, woof)
So 'scuse me if I drool
I ain't gonna hurt nobody
Ain't gonna cause a scene
Just need to admit
That I want sugar in my tea
Hear me? Hear me?
I want sugar in my tea

[Chorus]
And I don't wanna be an old man anymore
It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor
Shaking booty, making sweet love all the night
It's time I got back to the good life
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back, yeah
[Bridge]
I wanna go back, I wanna go back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back, yeah

[Chorus]
And I don't wanna be an old man anymore
It's been a year or two since I was out on the floor
Shaking booty, making sweet love all the night
It's time I got back to the good life
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
It's time I got back, it's time I got back
And I don't even know how I got off the track
I wanna go back, I wanna go back

[Outro]
Thank you
