Lyrics The Futureheads

The Futureheads

This Is the Life

his is the life, sit back and lap it up

And it's great to see a smile on your miserable face

Forget your troubles and strife,

We sat down and made them up

Like the lines on the maps of the satellites up in space

It's a breakthrough, but I must warn you

It can feel very strange

And you'll never be the same

This is, this is, this is

This is the life, this is what you've been waiting for

It's what we're celebrating for

This is the life, this is what you've been waiting for

It's what we're celebrating for

Don't be ashamed, or afraid to help yourself

To a world made up of childhood fantasy

You don't have to change, you don't have to test yourself

But don't act like a dog barking up the wrong family tree

It's a breakthrough, but I must warn you

It can feel very strange

And you'll never be the same

This is, this is, this is

This is the life, this is what you've been waiting for

It's what we're celebrating for

This is the life, this is what you've been waiting for

It's what we're celebrating for

This is the life, this is what you've been waiting for

It's what we're celebrating for

This is the life, this is what you've been waiting for

It's what we're celebrating for
