Song lyrics

I never cared about the money, never really needed fame -
You'd think it would have changed me but I've always been the same.
My label tried to sue me, TMZ tried to screw me,
Blabbermouth can fuckin' suck it 'cause they never fuckin' knew me.

Everybody seems like they're waiting for me to die.
Talk shit behind my back, can't look me in the eye.
They say I'm overrated, that I should've already faded.
Gave a shit about it all because I love to be so hated.

All in all it's a good life - I got what I want.
I can't complain (I can't complain).
I'm living the good life, a toast to you now -
It's all sham pain (it's all sham pain).

I barely get to eat and when I finally get to sleep.
I get drug out of bed for another meet and greet.
I shake the hand of every fan, put on a happy face.
Spread so fuckin' thin I'm all over the place.
I hate riding on the bus, I hate flying on the planes, sedate myself just to kill the pain.
I have no life, forgot the hope.
The whole thing's turned into one big joke.

All in all it's a good life - I got what I want.
I can't complain (I can't complain).
I'm living the good life, a toast to you now -
It's all sham pain (it's all sham pain).

I mean no disrespect but I ain't picking up the check.
Taking selfies on your phone while you're breathing down my neck.
It's getting pretty fuckin' old, and I'm almost nearly done.
I'm glad that you were happy as you talk to number one.

I'm living the good life, a toast to you now - it's all sham pain

All in all it's a good life, I got what I want.
I can't complain (I can't complain).
I'm living the good life, a toast to you now -
It's all sham pain (it's all sham pain).
