Whats Good - The Thesis
Lifes like a mayonnaise soda
And lifes like space without room
And lifes like bacon and ice cream
Thats what lifes like without you
Lifes like forever becoming
But lifes forever dealing in hurt
Now lifes like death without living
Thats what lifes like without you
Lifes like sanskrit read to a pony
I see you in my minds eye strangling on your tongue
Whats good is knowing such devotion
Ive been around - I know what makes things run
What good is seeing eye chocolate
What goods a computerized nose
And what good was cancer in april
Why no good - no good at all
What goods a war without killing
What good is rain that falls up
What goods a disease that wont hurt you
Why no good, I guess, no good at all
What good are these thoughts that Im thinking
It must be better not to be thinking at all
A styrofoam lover with emotions of concrete
No not much, not much at all
Whats good is life without living
What goods this lion that barks
You loved a life others throw away nightly
Its not fair, not fair at all
Whats good?
Oh, baby, whats good?
Whats good?
Whats good? not much at all
Hey, baby, whats good? (whats good? )
Whats good? (whats good? )
Whats good? (whats good? ) not much at all
Whats good? (whats good? )
Whats good? (lifes good)
Lifes good (lifes good)
Whats good? (lifes good) but not fair at all

Whats Good About Goodbye?
Goodbye!
Every face in the street, everyone that I meet
I think its you in disguise
I hear sweet angels sing, lifes a radiant thing
Im bewitched and tantalized, yeah
Whats good about goodbye?
No one ever told me
Whats good about goodbye?
Wish you could hold me
Nothing fair about fairwell
Nothing fair at all
Whats good about goodbye?
Nothing at all
Id be fooling myself, chasing anyone else
Its you that I prize
Why praise to heaven above, why praising God for sweet love?
When its you I idolize
(chorus)
Whats good, whats good
Whats good about goodbye?
Whats good, whats good
I feel bad about good goodbye
No truth in the rumour that parting is sweet
You lose your sense of humour, you feel incomplete
Theres heaven in hello, hell in goodbye
Now that youre leaving, Id rather die
(chorus)
Goodbye...

What's Good
Life's like a mayonnaise soda

Life's like forever becoming

Now life's like death without living
That's what life's like without you

Force Behind The Power
(stevie wonder)
Since the beginning of all lifes beginnings
Right at the very dawning of the sun
Any and everyone had cause and reason
For in good all good is done
Now down in every heart there are two forces
One is for the wrong, ones for the right
But never do you have to fear with this as armor
For good always wins the fight
Whats that force behind the power that wakes you each day
Whats that force behind the power that chases eavil away
Whats that force behind the power that puts a smile on your face
It is love, pure love, it is love
In every book of truth it has been written
That we are measured by the things we do
If for the good of all is what you like doing
Then all that good will come to you
That doesnt mean you have to be a rich man
You could be a person living on the street
But if you give but only words to lift someone higher
Then a heart of gold is what you will be
Whats that force behind the power that wakes you each day
Whats that force behind the power that chases eavil away
Whats that force behind the power that puts a smile on your face
It is love, pure love, it is love
Whats that force behind the power that makes you willing to share
Whats that force behind the power that for a lost soul youre there
Whats that force behind the power thats not to busy to care
It is love, pure love, it is love
Not trying to preach about it, but no one can do without it
Whats that force behind the power that will lend a hand
Whats that force behind the power when others cant yes you can
Whats that force behind the power its greater than any man
It is love, gods love, it is love
Whats that force behind the power that tears walls down of hate
Whats that force behind the power that is never too late
Whats that force behind the power that forever will wait
It is love, gods love, it is love

Whats So Bad About Feeling Good?
(feldman / hues / chandler)
Youre awake as dawn breaks, another day
And the grey clouds weep how you feel
But the way she touch you just bring you back to life
Dont let them bury your soul in concrete and steel
Chorus:
So whats so bad about feeling good?
Whats so bad, whats so bad?
Whats so bad about feeling good?
Whats so bad, whats so bad?
Why hold back when you know you should
Break the chains of your life and start
Fee------ling good
As were walking home theres a whispering
From the city lights to the stars
And the way she move her body next to me
In her hair I breathe the air of venus and mars
Whats so bad about feeling good?
Whats so bad, whats so bad?
Why hold back when you know you should
Break the chains of your life and start feeling good
Whats so bad about feeling good?
Break the chains of your life and start feeling good
Dream on, dream on
If youre happy feeling sad
Dream on, dream on
bout the things you could have had
Then tell me what -----
Tell me whats so good about feeling bad?

Tell Me Whats So Good About Goodbye
(allen henson, keith palmer)
I thought love was meant to last forever
Isnt that how loves supposed to be
Now it seems the good times are all over
Its so funny I guess the jokes on me
Every day I sit alone and wonder
Why I fell in love so easily
And then woke up to find that all he left behind
Are tattered dreams and broken pieces in my memory
So tell me whats so good about goodbye
Whats so good about watching good love die
Hes the kind you cant forget
So I wont even try
Tell me whats so good
I gave him all I could
Tell me whats so good about goodbye
I dont think Ill ever love another
I didnt know that goodbye could hurt so bad
I know Ill always find hes somewhere in my mind
Still believe the worst of hims the best Ill ever have

I dont go thinkin its right, for somebody else
I know how it is, I can see for myself, yeah
Look left, right, and make up your mind
If anyone tells you different, well theyre wastin your time
Yet its alright
Hey baby, whats a man to do
He says nothin, but he aint no fool
Hes just lookin, but its understood
Looks good from far, but its far from good
Good from far, far from good
Dont bring it around my door
Good from far, far from good
I dont care no more
She feels out of place, but it isnt a dream
She looks round and she knows that its all too extreme, yeah
And meanwhile, a party is beginnin to stall
And now shes ready to turn, and get away from it all
It dont feel right
Hey baby, whats a girl to do
You feel hurt, cause you play by the rules
Your friends tell you youre misunderstood
Looks good from far, but its far from good
Good from far, far from good
Dont bring it around my door
Good from far, far from good
I dont care no more
Good from far, far from good
You must accept that all, you turn and walk away
You live your own life, you get stronger every day
Good from far, far from good
Dont bring it around my door
Good from far, far from good
I dont care no more
Good from far, far from good
Baby, Im feelin alright
Good from far, far from good

Take stock of your life
Whats wrong and whats right
Empty pockets, got no green
Dont you know sunshine is free
What breaks have you had
Some good and some bad
Wanna go but got no car
Dreaming dreams can take you far
Chorus: you will find that lifes worth living
In this world, its out of this world
With a little love and a little giving
In this world, its out of this world
Look ot the future
Whos in the picture
Say your love lifes just a dream
Still youve got a friend in me
Today, tomorrow
Laughter and sorrow
Gonna be some lows and highs
Might as well enjoy the ride

Whats Up With That
Well how much blues do you use
Before you use it up
And how many fools take a chance
Before they hit it lucky
Tomorrows wanna be the day
It never seem to work that way
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Everybody want a little more
Than they think they got
But what you might think it is,
Might really not be, baby
Pick it up or leave it lay
It always seem to slip away
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Whats up with that
Now how high will a river get
Before it overflows
And how long is the hole to china
It dont really know
This is what its all about
Theres always gonna be a doubt

Aint no miracle being born
People doin it everyday
It aint no miracle growing up, ah
People just grow that way
So it goes like it goes
Like the river flows
And time it rolls right on
And maybe whats good gets a little bit better
And maybe whats bad gets gone
Ah, bless the child of a working man
She knows too soon who she is
And bless the hands of a working man
Oh, he knows his soul is his
So it goes like it goes
Like the river flows
And time it rolls right on
And maybe whats good gets a little bit better
And maybe whats bad gets gone
So it goes like it goes
Like the river flows
And time keeps rolling right on, oh

Lifes Been Good
Lifes been good
(j. walsh)
I have a mansion forget the price
Aint never been there they tell me its nice
I live in hotels tear out the walls
I have accountants pay for it all
They say Im crazy but I have a good time
(everybody say oh, yeah.....oh,yeah)
Im just looking for clues at the scene of the crime
Lifes been good to me so far
My maserati does 185
I lost my license now I dont drive
I have a limo ride in the back
I lock the doors in case Im attacked
Im making records my fans they cant wait
They write me letters tell me Im great
So I got me an office gold records on the wall
Just leave a message maybe Ill call
Lucky Im sane after all Ive been through
Everybody says Im cool (hes cool)
I cant complain but sometimes I still do
Lifes been good to me so far
I go to parties sometimes until four
Its hard to leave when you cant find the door
Its tough to handle this fortune and fame
Everybodys so different I havent changed
They say Im lazy but it takes all my time
Everybody says oh yeah (oh yeah)
I keep on going guess Ill never know why
Lifes been good to me so far

Have A Good Time
Words & music by paul simon
Yesterday it was my birthday
I hung one more year on the line
I should be depressed
My lifes a mess
But Im having a good time
Oo, Ive been loving and loving and loving
Im 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
Have a good time
Have a good time
Have a good time
Paranoia strikes deep in the heartland
But I think its all overdone
Exaggerating this and exaggerating that
They dont have no fun
I dont believe what I read in the papers
Theyre just out to capture my dime
I aint worrying
And I aint scurrying;
Im having a good time
Have a good time
Have a good time
Have a good time
Have a good time
Maybe Im laughing my way to disaster
Maybe my race has been run
Maybe Im 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 livin
Lets keep it that way
And well all have a good time
Repeat and fade:
Have a good time
Have a good time
Have a good time
Have a good time

Why do you come here ?
And why, why do you hang around ?
I'm so sorry, oh ...
I'm so sorry, oh, oh ...
Why do you come here
When you know it makes things hard for me ?
When you know, oh
Why do you come ?
Why do you telephone ? ahur...
And why, why send me silly notes ?
I'm so sorry
I'm so sorry, oh ...
Why do you come here
When you know it makes things hard for me ?
When you know, oh
Why do you come ?
It was because
Everything that i did
I wrote it down
On the wall
You had to sneak into my room
'just' to read my diary
"oh, it was just to see, just to see"
(all the things you knew i'd written about you...)
And oh so many illustrations
Oh, but
I'm so very sickened
Oh, i am so sickened now
Still, it was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay
Ah ...
Still, it was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay

Kiss Your Ass Goodbye
Here we go again
Hands making circles
That you cant turn back again
Sky turning purple
At the funeral of a friend
Who wasnt ready for the ending yet
He made a giant mess
Sloppy disaster
And he left it for the rest
To clean up after
Now the lawyers do their best
To try to divie up
Whats ever left
In the ending you can bet
Everyone feels cheated
Kiss your ass good-bye
Boy youre out of time
You didnt choose life
Its just your luck
You got your turn now
Give it up and
Kiss your ass good-bye
Whats left to say
When its over everyone but you remains
Little children will
Still go out and play
Just like its any other sunny day
Oh yeah
In the ending you can bet
Everyones an equal
Kiss your ass good-bye
Dude youre past your prime
First you loose your looks
Then you loose your luck
Take the hit now
Pony up and
Kiss your ass good-bye
Everybody gets to go around one time
(And they said it wouldnt last)
After that baby gonna go bye-bye
(Before you know it youre the past)
Everybody got to check out sometime
You go first
Ill catch up right behind
In the ending you can bet
Everyones a loser
Kiss your ass good-bye
Man its closing time
It never seems fair
Its never enough
Take a bow, pucker up and
Kiss your ass good-bye
(Nothing left to say, now that its over you can)
Kiss your ass good-bye Good-bye

Think she should be ?
The shrill cry through darkening air
Doesnt she know hes

Tell her ... sshhh
Somebody tell her ... sshhh
Oh, no way, no way, theres no movement
Oh, oh, hooray
Slowest ...
It was only a test
But she swam too far
Against the tide
She deserves all she gets
The sky became marked with stars
As an out-stretched arm slowly
Disappears
