Lyrics

Call me up after midnight
Tell me I'm wrong
Tell me I'm right
What do you want
What do I get
Did you just need the argument
Well, bad life
Corporate city
Lucky for some
Richest island in the sun
That's life
Name of the game
It's competition
Top of the pile
Not demolition
This is what you want
This is what you get
Bad, bad
Bad, bad
Bad life
Bad life
Now this machine is on the move
Now looking out for number one
The open road
I’m getting gasoline
Well, bad life
Bad, bad
Bad life
Human gets, dubious snide
Well, that's life
Well, that's life
Call me up after midnight
Tell me I'm wrong
Tell me I'm right
What do you want
What do I get
Did you just need the argument
Well, bad life
Bad life
Bad bad
Bad bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad
Bad life
Now looking out for number one
The open road
Getting gasoline
Human gets, dubious snide
Well, that's life
Bad life
Now looking out for number one
The open road
Getting gasoline
Human gets, dubious snide
Well, that's life
Bad bad
Bad life
Human gets, dubious snide
Well, that's life
Well, that's life
Well, that's life
This is what you want, this is what you get
This is what you want, this is what you get
This is what you want, this is what you get
This is what you want, this is what you get
This is what you want, this is what you get
This is what you want, this is what you get
This is what you want, this is what you get
A bad life
This is what you want, this is what you get
This is what you want, this is what you get
This is what you want, this is what you get
This is what you want, this is what you get...
