Good Kid Songtext
von Chris Acker

Multiply, addify, and subtraction
I never knew the square root of a fraction
If you′ve ever been at the bottom of a class
You know that D is just fine cause' D stands for pass

It′s the same thing as sure as you're born
You're a good kid but what are you good for

Mopping up the club, folding someone′s linens
In the dish pit crying on the dishes
You got that job and you got that boss
You did not show up, you got that job lost

It′s the same thing as sure as you're born
You′re a good kid but what are you good for


Good kid but what are you good for
Can't finish what you started before you get bored
Get by on your wit and your charm
Until you′re at your wits end and your charms all gone

Dotted my T's, crossed my I′s
Started seeing double-u, been wondering why
Oh you and me never got along and tried
To spell a lot better than we did one time

It's the same thing as sure as you're born
You′re a good kid but what are you good for

Good kid but what are you good for
Can′t finish what you started before you get bored
Get by on your wit and your charm
Till' you′re at your wits end and your charms all gone

It's the same thing as sure as you′re born
You're a good kid but what are you good for
