life's been good

i have a mansion, forget the price
ain't never been there, they tell me it's nice
i live in hotels, tear out the walls
i have accountants pay for it all

they say i'm crazy but i have a good time
i'm just looking for clues at the scene of the crime
life's been good to me so far

my maserati does one-eighty-five
i lost my license, now i don't drive
i have a limo, ride in the back
i lock the doors in case i'm attacked

i make hit records, my fans they can't wait
they write me letters, tell me i'm great
so i got me an office, gold records on the wall
just leave a message, maybe i'll call

lucky i'm sane after all i've been through
(everybody say “i'm cool”......”he's cool”)
i can't complain but sometimes i still do
life's been good to me so far

i go to parties, sometimes until four
it's hard to leave when you can't find the door
it's tough to handle this fortune and fame
everybody's so different, i haven't changed

they say i'm lazy but it takes all my time
(everybody say “oh, yeah”..... “oh, yeah”)
i keep on goin’ guess i'll never know why
life's been good to me so far

yeah, yeah, yeah
