“Something Good”
You make clueless babble on a vacant street
With your unlit smoke and your shoeless feet
Flagging traffic that don’t exist
Now you play the cop and you shake your fist
Years ago it’s true you’d lost your way
Scars show from your walk in the darkest woods
And it’s a familiar song
Even the bright folks can be wrong
For no one ever would
Think you could
Do something good
You stood alone in the shadow of a church spire
With your mind and heart both on fire
Soon the poison would fill your veins
You’d sleep it off under the moon and rain
It’s a minor miracle you’re still alive
They wrote you off throughout the neighborhood
And it’s a familiar song
Even the bright folks can be wrong
For no one ever would
Think you could
Do something good
Something good
You pulled two kids from that lake
Found their mamma’s glasses on the hood
Sometimes something so bad
Is what it takes
To find something good
I know you walked a many a broken mile
You lost your way and you lost your smile
You lost your grip and you dropped the keys
And when the cops showed up you were on your knees
Years ago it’s true you’d lost your way
Scars show from your walk in the darkest woods
And it’s a familiar song
Even the bright folks can be wrong
For no one ever would
Think you could
Do something good
Something good
Something good
