A Good Life (2025) lyrics by Jill Sobule

JILL, spoken
Two, three four

JILL
Tomorrow the ground may shake
Like they said it was bound to happen one day
And the Hollywood sign will fall
The final call
Don’t you fret and don’t be blue
You had me and I had you
It was a good life
It was a good, good life

Tomorrow we could all be gone
When the Russian gangsters sell the bomb
And the waves come roaring from the sea
A hundred-foot swells over Venice Beach
Don’t be scared, take my hand
We’ll swim into the Promised Land

JILL & BAND, JILL
It was a good life
It was a good, good life
It was a good life
It was a good, good life

JILL
Tomorrow a tiny virus might grow
In everyone, and it’s not a cold
Or the hole in the sky will open wide
The aliens land on the 105
If it comes to that, what can we do?

JILL & BAND
You had me and I had you

JILL & BAND, JILL
It was a good life
It was a good, good life
It was a good life
It was a good, good life
I said a boom boom, crash crash

JILL
Underneath the overpass
Burning buildings, flying glass
A good life
On the day the earth stood still
We won’t have to pay our bills
As the mud slides down the hill
A good life
We won’t have to make our beds
Break out the booze, and like I said
Let’s have a ball before we’re dead
A good life
Let the pyres rise above
We’ll go down in our sweet love
It was a good

JILL, spoken
Everybody sing

ALL
It was a good life
It was a good, good life

JILL, spoken
Everyone

ALL
It was a good life

JILL
It was a good life

ALL
It was a good, good life
It was a good life

JILL
It was a good life

ALL
It was a good, good life
It was a good life
It was a good, good life
