To Just Be Good (Featuring Gerri White)

from Needs Help (Deluxe Edition) by The Very Most

/

lyrics

It feels swell to do something well, but
We should try, Lorelai, to just be good.
It’s so great to get accolades, but
We should try, Lorelai, to just be good.

I would rather have one boring, fat dad
Who gives everything for his children than
Ten aspiring poets.

Art’s the best, but not if you’re too obsessed.
It could help you become someone who is not so good.
Feels so great to make something great, but
Better to rhyme “great” with “great” than not be good.

I would gladly trade Ok Computer and Kid A
For a teacher in Topeka whose
Kids feel truly loved.
