Good Times
S Club 7 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're working to hard
Too many hours on the job
And you know it must get better than this
You're killing yourself
And missing your love
It's been weeks since you've been out with your friends

We all need a change once in a while
The time to make a change is right now

This is for the good times, good times
This is to the good life
This is for the good times, good times
This is to the good life
Take it easy baby, here's to good times

The pressures on
Boss is breathing down your neck
But the only thing you see's that vacation pamphlet on your desk
You fantasise
The day you leave it all behind
To spend the best days of you're life in the sun

We all need a change once in a while
The time to make a change is right now

This is for the good times, good times
This is to the good life
This is for the good times, good times
This is to the good life
Take it easy baby, here's to good times

It's for the goodtimes baby

We all need a change once in a while
The time to make a change is right now

This is for the good times, good times
This is to the good life
This is for the good times, good times




This is to the good life
Take it easy baby, here's to good times
