If I were you I'd be taking it easy
Kick back and relax for a little while
We'll all still be here tomorrow
Take time just to act like a little child
No matter what the world has in store for us
Reach out for a comfortable chair
Rejoice and throw your arms in the air

[Chorus]
'Cause it's a good life so why you trippin'
The good life slippin' away

If your boss is giving you pressure
Let go take a breather in the park
You've got to find out what's your pleasure
In time ou'll be singing like a lark
Pretty soon your sorry wll chime for all
Somebody will heed your call
Leave all your troubles and pain
And rise like Phoenix from the flame

[Chorus]
'Cause it's a good life so why you trippin'
The good life slippin' away

Reach out for comfortable chair
Rejoice and throw your arms in the air

Now the gospel according to Boots is
If you're gonna have a life, you might as well have a good one

[Chorus]
'Cause it's a good life so why you trippin'
The good life slippin' away
