    Story Behind the Song
    The Good Life (as the title suggests), is about looking for the better things life has to offer. It was entered in Channel V's first 'Leg-Up' band comp in 2000 and made it to the final 100 where it received the following reviews...

    We love the lyrics and the way A.K.A. deliver them - philosophical punk pop at its best, even if the playing is a teeny bit skewiff here and there. It's got soul, and is one of those songs we found ourselves singing days after hearing... (Juliebee)

    Nice one boys. Catchy riff, a simple yet tidy effort. Not bad for a few northern beaches lads I reckon. (James M)

    Lyrics
    Excuse me mum but do you know
    What happens to us and where do we go
    Is heaven & hell just a myth
    Why is everyone just so different

    What is my view on life
    I'll tell you when I find out
    What do I think of you
    But first what do you think of me

    Why are we all so different
    When we're living the same life
    I just can't handle the truth no more
    But please don't lie to me

    I have a dog you have a cat
    No one really cares alot about that
    My parents are cool yours a divorced
    Cause that's the trendy thing to do

    I know life's hard but it's a fact
    That we try and follow the better act
    I just can't handle the truth no more
    But please don't lie to me

    Have you found the good life yet
    If you have please tell me
    Please tell me i wanna know it all

    Why does the world turn around
    Who decided that and why didn't they ask me
    Why is the sun just so hot
    Do you really care at all

    Tell me about the birds and the bees
    Or aren't I old enough yet mum
    You just can't handle the truth yourself
    That's why you lie to me

    Have you found the good life yet
    If you have please tell me
    Please tell me i wanna know it all

    Excuse me mum but you don't
    What happens to us or where we go
    Everything we hear is just a myth
    That's why everyone's just so different
