Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My cousin Greg
Well he's a greedy son of a bitch
He's making his way from Florida up to L.A.
He left the tropicana
Passed through Louisiana
He laughs hard and carries on
But he can barely stand ya
[Verse 2]
All his physicist buddies
They all wear the Snow White coats
And goggles to shield the elements from their eyes
Greg's companion Andy
He lives his life vicariously through his mathematics
[Verse 3]
If you wanna live the good life
Well, you'd better stay away from the limelight
If you wanna live the good life
Well, you'd better stay away from the limelight
[Verse 4]
They call him Rollin' James
He's got a heart that's made of brains
He fell in love once
And thought about it for a day
Hey Greg
Where'd you go last night
He says I don't know, but I woke up with a pocket full of loot
[Verse 5]
If you wanna live the good life
Well, you'd better stay away from the limelight
If you wanna live the good life
Well, you'd better stay away from the limelight
[Verse 6]
Hey Greg
Where'd one of your shoes go
He looked at me and said
That's not important
Please don't you point your photon ray gun at me
Oh
[Verse 7]
If you wanna live the good life
Well, you'd better stay away from the limelight
If you wanna live the good life
Well, you'd better stay away from the limelight
