[English]

Good times for a change

See, the luck I've had

Can make a good man turn bad

...

So, please, please, please

Let me, let me, let me

Let me get what I want this time

...

Haven't had a dream in a long time

See, the life I've had

Can make a good man bad

So, for once in my life

Let me get what I want

Lord knows, it would be the first time

Lord knows, it would be the first time

...
