Taste Of The Good Life

(album: Elsewhere - 2022)

Don't act so surprised
Gave an inch, you took a mile
Oh, what a, what a waste
When you choked on a taste
A taste of the good life

What if you loved yourself less
Try being selfless
Stepped out the haunted mansion
Where you've been living
Went from mentor to menace
In a few seconds
From living to a death wish
Like that makes legends

You traded, you traded me in
Were you trading, you trading up
You cashed in your, you cashed in your friends
To get better drugs (Really?)

But don't act so surprised
Gave an inch, you took a mile
Oh, what a, what a waste
When you choked on a taste
A taste of the good life
But don't act so surprised
Buckle up, enjoy the ride
Oh, what a, what a waste
When you choked on a taste
A taste of the good life

A miserable magician
What's up your sleeve now?
Blamed me for being homeless
When you locked yourself out

You traded, you traded me in
Were you trading, you trading up
You cashed in your, you cashed in your friends
To get better drugs (Really?)

But don't act so surprised
Gave an inch, you took a mile
Oh, what a, what a waste
When you choked on a taste
A taste of the good life
But don't act so surprised
Buckle up, enjoy the ride
Oh, what a, what a waste
When you choked on a taste
A taste of the good life

Where did you go?
'Cause I don't know the stranger in front of me
Where did you go?
'Cause I've been wondering, wondering
Where did you go?
'Cause I don't know the stranger in front of me

But don't act so surprised
Gave an inch, you took a mile
Oh, what a, what a waste
When you choked on a taste
A taste of the good life
High on your own supply
Buckle up, enjoy the ride
Oh, what a, what a waste
When you choked on a taste
A taste of the good life
