Am I a lover of being a failure, or just a failure at being a lover' - sometimes I just wonder,
Sometimes I just wonder,
Am I too much like Voltaire's Candide, or just some other fool'

Good life,
This is the good life,
To be so young, to be so right.

No, I have never, never even changed the world, though I've been told one thousand times I should want to...but no one has asked me to,
Does that seem so strange to you: that no one has asked me to sideline all those tasteless, funny little moves that I learned from you'

The good life,
This is the good life,
To be so young, to be so right,
The good life,
This is the good life,
Be so young, to be so right.
