This is the Life — The Futureheads

This 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

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
