(Lust for life x 3)



Here comes Johnny in again



With liquor and drugs



And a flash machine



He's gonna do another strip tease



Ah, hey man, where'd ya get that lotion?



I've been hurting since I bought the gimmick



About something called love



Yeah, something called love



Well, that's like hypnotising chickens



I'm just a modern guy



Huh, of course, I've had it in the ear before



I have a lust for life



Cause I've a lust for life



Lust for life (ooh)



Lust for life



Lust for life



I'm worth a million in prizes



With my torture film



Drive a GTO



I wear a uniform



On a government loan



I'm worth a million in prizes



Yeah, I'm through with sleeping on the sidewalk



No more beating my brains



No more beating my brains



With liquor and drugs



With liquor and drugs



Ooh, I'm just a modern guy



Huh, of course, I've had it in the ear before



And I've a lust for life (lust for life)



Cause I've a lust for life (lust for life)



A lust for life (ooh)



A lust for life



Lust for life (ooh)



I got a lust for life



Lust for life (ooh)



Ah a lust for life



Lust for life (ooh)



Lust for life



Lust for life



I'm just a modern guy



Huh, of course, I've had it in the ear before



And I've a lust for life (lust for life)



Cause I've a lust for life (lust for life)



A lust for life (ooh)



Lust for life



Lust for life (ooh)



Lust for life



Lust for life (ooh)



I got a lust for life



Lust for life (ooh)



I got a lust for life



A lust for life
