Yeah yeah!
Don t look now, but here come the eightees!

I was so cool back in sixty-five
I had it made cause I understood what to do to survive
I had my car, and I made the scene
Didn t give a damn about no gasoline
They can go to hell
My friend we never thought about the world
And its realities
The promised land was ours
We were the Great Society

I m so confused by the things I read, I need the truth
But the truth is, I don t know who to believe
The left say yes, and the right says no
I m in between and the more I learn
Well, the less that I know
I got to make a show

Livin high, living fine
Livin high on borrowed time

Yes! No!
Yes! No!
No! Yes!
No! Yes!

Faith be with me now
I m just a dreamer in a dreamland
Faith be with me now
I m just a dreamer in a dreamland

Cause we re
Livin high
Livin fine (You know I m livin fine)
Livin high (Yes I m livin high)
On borrowed time (On borrowed time)
Livin high (Whoohoo!)
Livin fine (Ahhh!)
Livin high
On Lake Shore Drive (Midnight ride)
Livin high (We re livin high)
On Leslie Lane (Let s go back and play it again!)
Livin high (We re livin high)
On Red Bud Trail (On Red Bud, Red Bud Trail!)
Livin high
On Central Drive (He s on Central Drive!)
Livin high (We re livin , livin high)
On Prestwick Drive (Catch me on Prestwick Drive!...)
Livin high (...gettin in and drivin my Mercedes...)
Livin fine (...up and down and up and down -- sh*t! I don t....)
