This is the way that life should be
I can read at night and even snore
The closet's mine, every hanger in there
No more loaded books do I ever share
The tub is mine, the sink is mine
The chair is mine, the room is mine,
This is the life, the life for me,
I guess, I miss them more
Out side of that, I'm glad I am alone
This is the sweetest living
No more the hopeless feeling I am caught.
Oh, yes, there's peace in
Yes, there is peace in hearing no one sigh,
and that's the reason why
This is the life, the life we'll be.
This is the way it ought to be.
I'm free! Hey! Room service!
And not have to wait till your wife...
Oh, this is Samuel Cooper on 728
I'm hungry! What? Yes, I said for one.
Damn it! Service for one!
What's so bizarre about a man alone?
Sure, I know it's not ideal.
But that's a thing they say
I wonder why it hasn't done it yet
I even think they're starting to grow.
Now cut it out, go out and have a whirl.
Go on, you dope, you're absolutely
I wish I were free of that
The three of them swimming,
and I don't hear them screaming.
No, I'm not sitting in tonight.
There must be something out there to do.
Don't have a family, a home, a wife.
This is the life, the life for me.
This is the way it ought to be.
I'm free, I'm free, I'm free!
