This is the Life(Words and Music By Andy Hill)Big big city, small mindHe got your best interests at heart All of the time He got loud opinions, he got good advice On every subject there is 'Cause he never thinks twice. He's fiscally fit for when flattery fails He can't be embarassed 'Cause of the thought it entails Oh, his is the life Oh, this is the life He got a lot of books about lots of things He got books about the authors Who wrote the books about the things They tell him what to say They tell him how to dress up Teach him money talks 'Round here it don't ever shut up He got a billboard in the city He's a household word For enquiring minds who'd rather die than be cured Oh, his is the life Oh, this is the life His product ain't worth nothin' But you can bet it'll sell This'd all be funny If it were somebody else I feel like a clown left behind When the circus is gone I got twelve presets on my radio And I can't find one good song Just twelve happy voices tellin' me to be glad The only laughter I hear Is the sound of me bein' had Oh, is this the life? Oh, this is the life. |
