Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
They say I'm crazy, but I have a good time
I'm just lookin' for clues
At the scene of the crime
Life's been good to me so far
[Verse 3]
My Maserati does one eighty-five
I lost my license, now I don't drive
I have a limo, ride in the trunk
I lock the doors in case in get drunk
[Verse 4]
I'm makin' records, my fans, they can't wait
They write him letters, tell when time's great
So I got me an office, gold records on the wall
Just leave a message, maybe I'll call
[Verse 5]
Lucky I'm sane after all I've been through
But he says I'm cool (He's cool)
I can't complain, but sometimes I still do
Life's been good to me so far
[Verse 6]
I go to parties, sometimes until four
It's hard to leave when you can't find some more
It tough to handle this fortune and fame
Everybody's so different, we're all insane
[Verse 7]
They say I'm lazy, but it takes all my time
(Everybody sing, oh yeah, oh yeah) Oh yeah
Keep on goin', I guess I'll never know why
Life's been good to me so far
