"Good Things" lyrics

"Good Things"

Ah-ah

Unhappy, deaf in one ear
Last week, my skin was so clear
Good things don't learn from themselves
Each day, we crawl out of Hell
What is it everyone says?
Nice words, we're first to forget
Good things aren't waiting around
We've gotta chase 'em down, chase 'em

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

You thought I wasn't polite
God, I hate proving you right
Good things don't warrant a "please"
Nice words don't matter to me
Sunburn spread under shampoo
Learn me, and I will learn you
Good things for people who wait
But will they come too late, come too

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Too old not to know some
Too young to pretend I'm not young
How come I'm so readily surprised?
I don't know if I'm good
I long to be understood
But I'll be longing my whole life

Will I get used to myself
If I don't have any help?
Good things are one in a mil'
All luck without enough skill
Unhappy, get it on film
So when I'm finally fulfilled
Good things will seem better, still
Start here, then take it uphill

Ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Too old not to know some
Too young to pretend I'm not young
How come I'm so readily surprised?
I don't know if I'm good
I long to be understood
But I'll be longing my whole life, oh

Too old not to know some
Too young to pretend I'm not young
How come, how come
I'm so readily surprised?
Why not do what feels good?
Why long to be understood
When I've got, I've got
I've got the rest of my life?
