"It's Good But It Just Ain't Right" lyrics

"It's Good But It Just Ain't Right"

I wanted the women
To go round the world
Got the boat down to Helsinki city
With boys who act like little girls

It ain't quite what I pictured
Ain't quite what I had in mind
I realized that the closer I got
That close has the taste of real cheap wine

Clearly - nearly
I open my eyes but only see things barely
I can smell it but I don't get high
I know it's good but it just ain't right

Ended up with a donkey
When my mind was set on a horse
Bargained and begged for a pony and I rode it
With a fake smile on only wanting more

I've had it with just about right now
Moderate won't get me no far
Been through almosts, okays, in betweens, nighs and decents
But close just ain't no cigar

Clearly - nearly
In the corner of my eye only works in theory
I can see it even shines a light
I know it's good but it just ain't right

Clearly - nearly
I open my eyes but only see things barely
I can smell it but I don't get high
I know it's good but it just ain't right
