Beautiful life lyrics

Artist  : Edwin mccain 
Song : Beautiful life
 

Another beautiful morning under stars and bars 
And F series pickups and rusted out cars  And
they`re eating breakfast at the strip bar  Just
to have a peek¡­  And the beer soaked angels
spread their wings  And dream of twenties and
diamonds and things  And somehow that might ease
the sting  Of the company they keep  Yeah¡­ 
And the vets still talk about the tet offensive 
And the freshmen boys all look so pensive 
Because living large is so expensive  Hope daddy
fueled the jet¡­  And we`ll all fly out to the
Hard Rock casino  And we`ll put on our neatly
pressed and fine chinos  And we`ll laugh at the
guy in the El Camino  Is that the only car he
could get?  It`s a beautiful life  It`s just as
advertised  It`s all for one low price  Just
read the fine print, and you`ll be content  With
your beautiful life  And record smoothies say
"What a sound"  You`re the greatest
thing we`ve found  But you`re gonna have to lose
a few pounds  We`re gonna put you on TV  
And don`t think our place is so swank  Don`t
worry about that guy, he`s high on crank  That`s
exactly why his last record tanked  And let that
be a lesson to me  Chorus  And all our churches
glow  Communion wafers trash TV shows  Say
"Hey, at least you don`t have this
strife"  `Cause you`ll be warm and safe 
In your beautiful life  Yeah¡­ And it`s hard to
tell what`s true compassion  When it`s dressed up
in hair and nails and fashion  And the tabloids
all rush to cash in on what we should believe 
And I hope I never see the day  When there`s
nothing left on the planet left to save  And
oxygen is the designer crusade  As we all fight
to breathe¡­ Chorus
