The Good Life - Fire Town[00:00:00]
Way out on Elysian Street[00:00:16]
Out behind the railroad tracks[00:00:20]
Another dreamtown's rising[00:00:24]
From a sea of cardboard shacks[00:00:27]
But the IRS is worried[00:00:31]
They say they want their money back[00:00:35]
They sent a little man down there with a calculator[00:00:38]
He's figuring out the tax[00:00:42]
But nobody bats an eye[00:00:46]
It's just the good life passing you by[00:00:50]
Let the green green water take me away[00:00:54]
Where we all stand naked on judgement day[00:00:58]
It's just the good life[00:01:05]
It's just the good life[00:01:13]
There's a brand new club down on Downer Street[00:01:17]
Where you can hear Robert Johnson sing[00:01:20]
And on the girls fly in from Providence[00:01:24]
With their Good Hope diamond rings[00:01:28]
And even Marshall Dillon drops by[00:01:32]
With his friend the little king[00:01:36]
After a drink or two they'll sing[00:01:39]
Don't be cruel[00:01:42]
For twenty bucks they'll do anything[00:01:44]
But nobody bats an eye[00:01:47]
It's just the good life passing you by[00:01:51]
Let the great Mississippi wash these hands[00:01:55]
Of the tears we've cried and we'll start again[00:01:59]
It's just the good life[00:02:06]
It's just the good life[00:02:14]
Well Christmas time came early this year[00:02:26]
Down on Granddad's farm[00:02:30]
He opened up all the presents himself[00:02:33]
With an antique Charter Arms[00:02:37]
Then he tucked the whole family into bed[00:02:40]
Out in a corner of the yard[00:02:45]
When the TV man asked him what went wrong[00:02:48]
He said I just got tired of being ignored[00:02:52]
Now on the shopping mall boys are sleeping[00:02:56]
On the feathers of yesterday's crimes[00:03:00]
Dreaming dreams of dancing centrefolds[00:03:03]
With perfect alabaster eyes[00:03:07]
And uncle Sam's got a brand new scam[00:03:11]
Selling franchised frozen pies[00:03:15]
He says he'll sell you a vote[00:03:18]
Or a bullet proof coat[00:03:20]
'Cause there's nothing money won't buy[00:03:22]
But nobody bats an eye[00:03:26]
It's just the good life passing you by[00:03:30]
Let the green green water take me away[00:03:34]
Where we all stand naked on judgement day[00:03:38]
Nobody's asking why[00:03:42]
It's just the good life making you cry[00:03:45]
Nobody bats an eye[00:03:50]
It's just the good life[00:03:53]
It's just the good life[00:04:00]
Passing you by[00:04:03]
It's just the good life[00:04:08]
Passing you by[00:04:10]
It's just the good life[00:04:15]
Passing you by[00:04:18]
It's just the good life[00:04:23]
Passing you by[00:04:26]
It's just the good life[00:04:31]
Passing you by[00:04:33]
It's just the good life[00:04:38]
