I wish my life was like a John Hughes movie Good times and easy on the dark side I wish my life was like a John Hughes movie Bright lights, always looking for a better life We were looking for each other In the bars on the west side We were looking for the summer When it's cold outside This is gonna be good Life is coming up aces Everything is coming up aces We found a way to make money out of Broken boys and difficult girls Reality is wonderful We were waking up For the world to begin Things are so much better now I have a good reason to Want to get wasted again We were slumming for a buzz In a new place that used to be the old school We were happy for the pain of being Lame enough to want to look cool I really think that this is going to be good Life is coming up aces Everything is coming up aces We can make a good living out Of broken lives and empty hearts Ain't this entertaining watching people fall apart We were wasting time waiting For the world to begin Things are so much better now I have a good reason to Wanna get wasted again Back home, white trash There isn't any limit to the shame These people have Good people do bad things Have sex with an ex in the bathroom On their wedding day Pretty faces with no soul Everybody needs a chance to Win themselves a better life Everybody wants a better life Everybody wants a better life Everybody wants a better life Everybody wants a better life
