Be Good Lyrics
Emily Kinney
Lyrics
Its unclear now what we intend
We're alone in our own world
And you don't want to be my boyfriend
And i don't want to be your girl
And that, that's a relief
We'll drink up our grief
And pine for summer
And we'll buy, beer to shot gun
And we'll lay in the lawn
And We'll be good
Now I'm laughing at my boredom
And my string of failed attempts
Cause you think that its important
And i welcome the sentiment
And we talk on the phone at night
Until its daylight and i feel clever
And i hear the slow in your speech
Yeah you're half asleep
Say goodnight
Ooh Ahh Ooh Ahh
Now I've got friendships to mend
And I'm selfishly dispossessed
You don't wanna be my boyfriend
And that's probably for the best
Cause that, that gets messy
And you will hurt me
Or I'll disappear
So we will drink beer all day
And our guards will give way
And we'll be good
And we'll be good
