Back to Richie's, so they say
But it's hard to say
when every day is pouring rain
And it's back to the drawing
board again
Monday comes around too soon
Another week of toil
Cause the kids don't need no shoes
And it's back to the grind
zone again for you
You know you're living the good life
Just the way that you should like
So make the best of it
all and stand up
Slings and arrows and an early grave
One eye open,
always looking for an easy way
And it's another dinner
from the take -away
Friday night and the wage is done
Bills all paid
And there's nothing left to get drunk on
No bottom of a bottle to hang hopes on
You know you live in the good life
Just the way that you should like
So make the best of it all and sound off
To the victor go the spoils
So make your chances
where you can
Doesn't always have to be have to
Just gotta play the cards
up to your head
Days like these up to your neck,
say your glass is always half full,
but where's the rest?
And it's off to the races
in your Sunday best,
back to basics for another round
You've got to keep your chin up
to let the bastards grab you down
Take another stab at the sacred cowl
You know you're living
the good life
Just the way that you should like
So make the best of it all
You know you're living
the good life
Just the way that you should like
So make the best of it all and stand up
Thanks for watching!
