HAVE A GOOD TIME
Paul Simon


Yesterday it was my birthday 
I hung one more year on the line 
I should be depressed 
My life's a mess 
But I'm having a good time 

Oo, I've been loving and loving and loving 
I'm exhausted from loving so well 
I should go to bed 
But a voice in my head 
Says "Ah, what the hell" 

Have a good time (4x)

Paranoia strikes deep in the heartland 
But I think it's all overdone 
Exaggerating this and exaggerating that 
They don't have no fun 

I don't believe what I read in the papers 
They're just out to capture my dime 
I ain't worrying 
And I ain't scurrying; 
I'm having a good time 

Have a good time (4x)

Maybe I'm laughing my way to disaster 
Maybe my race has been run 
Maybe I'm blind to the fate of mankind 
But what can be done? 
So God bless the goods we was given 
And God bless the U. S. of A. 
And God bless our standard of living 
Let's keep it that way 
And we'll all have a good time 

Repeat and fade: 
Have a good time (4x)
