I've been tryna have a good life
But no one wants you to be satisfied
They double the bill and split the difference
And leave you paying down the interest
They say you get what you pay for
I bought a mattress at the discount store
Feel like I'm sleeping on a concrete floor
I guess you get what you pay for
Why's it so hard to have a good thing?
It should be easier, you would think
You better be rich and good looking
'Cause it's so hard to have a good thing
Well, I'm just tryna have a good life
Clams casino on a Sunday night
And betting the house on a bottle of wine
Yeah, I'm just tryna have a good time
Is it so bad to want a good thing?
Don't even let 'em catch you looking
Don't let 'em see you get your foot in
Is it so bad to want a good thing?
'Cause all I want is just a little bit more
Is that so much for me to ask for?
And clams casino on a Sunday night
Is it so bad to want a good life?
And she said, "All you do is bitch and moan
You're never happy, and you're never home
Everyone wants what they don't have
And you really don't have it half bad"
But baby, I'm trying to express myself
You know the doctor said it might help
If I can release some of this tension
If I can make peace with this question
Is it so bad to want a good thing?
Don't even let 'em catch you looking
Don't let 'em see you get your foot in
Is it so bad to want a good thing?
'Cause all I want is just a little bit more
Is that so much for me to ask for?
And clams casino on a Sunday night
Is it so bad to want a good life?
Is it so bad to want a good life?
Is it so bad to want a good life?
