The Life

From the album: True North, Released 11.14.2000

I listened to you from your pedestal
- telling us all how your world was full of shit
Why couldn't you bow and say ";Thank you all";
to everyone who made you what you are
It sent my heart, hurt, crashing down
'Cause these are my dreams you're bashing


Chorus:
You're living the life
Can't you see you are living the life?
You're living the life that I only dream


The kingdom you own - does it drag you down?
I'll gladly relieve you of your big shiny crown
You say it's so frustrating now
I can't believe you're faking


Living the life
Seems to me you are living the life
You're living a wonderful, wonderful life...


Tell me would you really rather be a
nobody nobody knows?
Oh no?


Living the life
Seems to me you are living the life
You're living a wonderful, wonderful life...


'Cause this is the way that I fill my heart
