Lyrics

PRELUDE/GOOD AS IT GETS

The words "you're not alone"
Are of no consequence to me
When you're stripped down to the bone
The bottom is what you see
And all those years for who, for what?
That question, it sure bothers me
Now all that's left is letting go
It's as hard as it can be

There's no smiling faces at my door
You know I can't stay here....
Anymore

It’s as nasty as can be
I’m givin’ you this warning
This situation handed me
The skies have started stormin’

Golden rules from all the schools
The money lenders changed them
Their greed and lust for gold have caused
This Trumped up state I live in

You know it’s bad
Been here before
I cannot take it anymore

Because it’s bad
Show me where to sign
I’m gonna put it on the line

So very bad
It’s easy to see
It’s really getting to me

You know it’s bad
When bad is as Good As It Gets
Good As It Gets

The so-called experts think they know
I just can’t entertain them
The t.v., paper, radio
All clueless causing mayhem

What once was found as truth be told
Has fallen by the wayside
No matter what the future holds
The fact is we cannot hide

You know it’s bad
Been here before
I cannot take it anymore


Because it’s bad
Show me where to sign
I’m gonna put it on the line

So very bad
It’s easy to see
It’s really getting to me

You know it’s bad
When bad is as Good As It Gets
Good As It Gets

Ya know it still is nasty as can be
I’m givin’ you this warning
This situation handed me
The skies they still are stormin’

What once was found as truth be told
Has fallen by the wayside
No matter what the future holds
The fact is we cannot hide
