Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs
And a flesh machine
He's gonna do another striptease
Hey man, where'd you get that lotion?
I've been hurting since I bought the gimmick
About something called love
Yeah, something called love
Well, that's like hypnotizing chickens
[Chorus]
I'm just a modern guy
You know I've had it in the ear before
I got a lust for life
I got a lust for life
[Verse 2]
I'm worth a million in prizes
With a torture film
I drive a GTO
I wear a uniform
All on a government loan
I'm worth a million in prizes
I'm through with sleeping on the sidewalk
No more beating my brains
Beating my brains
With the liquor and drugs
Liquor and drugs
[Chorus]
I'm just a modern guy
You know I've had it in my ear before
I got a lust for life
I got a lust for life, alright
[Refrain]
Lust for life, come on, who wants to get up here?
Lust for life, come on, motherfuckers
Lust for life
A lust for life
Lust for life, come on, little boy, get up here
Lust for life, let him up, yeah
Lust for life
[Chorus]
I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in my ear before
I got a lust for life, yeah, boy
Lust for life, alright now
[Verse 3]
Well, here comes Johnny Yen again
He got the liquor and drugs
And a flesh machine
I know he's gonna do another striptease
Hey man, where'd ya get that lotion?
Your skin starts itching once you buy the gimmick
About something called love
Oh, love, love, love
That's like hypnotizing chickens
[Chorus]
I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in the ear before
I got a lust for life
Got a lust for life, now here we go
[Outro]
Lust for life
Lust for life
Lust for life
Lust for life
Lust for life
Lust for life
I got a lust for life
