The Good Life by Ghost Mice


I wish I was a bumblebee
I wish I lived to love my queen
fly from flower to flower all day
and I'd dance if I had something to say
everybody working to feed our babies
such a simple and honest community
not making money, just making honey
I wish I could make something that sweet.

I wish I was a mountain goat
I wish I didn't know all the things I know
Id eat alpine flowers for lunch each day
and take naps in the sun in some secret place
living high on peaks all covered in snow
in the valleys that no one else could go
what some people call danger I'd call my home
and I'd never have to hear another telephone

I wish that I could be them both
anythings better than being a ghost
I wish I was alive
I wish nobody ever had to die
