Recorded live at Blu Coral Lounge in Chicago, IL

lyrics

Every time I settle in
Something is stirring
Make you feel like you just can’t win
In a life that’s so unnerving

You leave your girl and want her back
Oh it drives you crazy.
And I’m afraid to take a nap
In a life where I’m too lazy.

So, pick a new one up on a Saturday night
She feels like she could be the next Mrs. right for me,
But something tells me I will blow it, yeah yeah you know it.

She could deal with my faults don’t you see and one day she could fall in love with me.
I think I got a pretty good deal. I got rid of my Cancer and got myself a Leo

Saying I’m back in control of my life, aren’t you proud of me?

It’s a good life today
Please don’t take it away
Aww but what can I say
I’ll probably blow it all anyways
Oh but not today.

Cause temptation into lies
Oh my ethics compromise.
The next girl with pretty eyes
Or the devil in disguise.

But if to fail is not to try
Boy, will I succeed in life,
Cause if I let this all pass me by
That’s not how I want to die.

I’m back in control of my life, aren’t you proud of me?

It’s a good life today
Please don’t take it away
Aww but what can I say
I’ll probably blow it all anyways
Oh but not today.

It’s a good life today
Please don’t take it away
Aww but what can I say
I’ll probably blow it all, blow it all,
but not today.
