This song is about being human - there are days when you wake up thinking you have missed out on life, and worse, that is is your own fault!. Part-and-parcel with this realization are deeply held, if unrealistic, ambitions, and a largely illusory view of what life has to offer.

lyrics

Lyrics:
I never had no passion and I never had no cool
I never learnt a trade and I couldn’t finish school
I never got to travel and I never saw the light
but I gotta get some action and I gotta getta a life

I gotta find enlightenment and learn some cosmic things
and I gotta have a reason to laugh and dance and sing
but I’m dying on the dole, cannot find a good career
and I’m running out of money so I gotta get outta here

now I wanna be a pop star, and have a hit or two
and I wanna getta habit, cause that’s what pop stars do
and I wanna be a S.O.B., and drink and screw and curse
and when my fans get wind of it, I wanna make it worse

I gotta get some status, gotta getta female friend
and I gotta have a party where the good times never end
and I gotta getta Cadillac and drive it all around
impressing all the sheilas with the power of my sound

I gotta getta
I gotta getta
I gotta getta
I gotta getta, gotta get outa ...
