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

You got the ring that better get off of us

Reach out for a comfortable chair

Rejoice and throw your arms in the air



'Cause it's a good life so why you trippin'

The good life slippin' away



If you're 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 you'll be singing like a lark

Pretty soon your sorry will chime for all

Somebody will heed your call

Leave all your troubles and pain

And rise like Phoenix from the flame



'Cause it's a good life so why you trippin'

The good life slippin' away



Reach out for a 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



'Cause it's a good life so why you trippin'

The good life slippin' away
