I saw what I had, so
I got, I got mad, so
I guess I went bad, so

Now I search for new endeavors
Push my buttons, wear my levers

Who says it's good, good, good to be alive, baby?
Same ones who keep it a perpetual jive, baby
Who says it's good, good, good to be alive?
It ain't no good, it's a perpetual dive

There's nothing to win by
This sort of an outcry
Oh yeah we all know why

'Cause the world a person lives in
Is his brain, well mine just gives in

Who says it's good, good, good to be alive, baby?
Same ones who keep it a perpetual jive, baby
Who says it's good, good, good to be alive?
It ain't no good, it's a perpetual dive

It's clear that I choose to
Live on, I'm so used to
But still it ain't news to

Ditch it say when one incentive's
Gained and gone though, you're inventive

Who says it's good, good, good to be alive, baby?
Same ones who keep it a perpetual jive
Who says it's good, good, good to be alive?
It ain't no good, it's a perpetual dive

Once born, you're addicted
And so you depict it
As good, but who kicked it?

Users just can't see the horror
Tell one if you want to bore her

Who says it's good, good, good to be alive, baby?
Same ones who keep it a perpetual jive, baby
Who says it's good, good, good to be alive?
It ain't no good, it's a perpetual dive
