XTC - The Good Things lyrics

rate me

Though your heart desires the things that money can buy

Emptiness lies through the glass, I shield your eyes

There's nothing out there for you, my dear

There's nothing out there for you

Let me tell you about the good things

The good things

I know your head is full of big ideas

You ain't missing anything, have no fear

I have touched the grass so green on the other side

It will grieve you and deceive you with disguise

There's nothing out there for you, my dear

There's nothing out there for you

Let me tell you about the good things

The good things

I know you pine for things you see in magazines

That world brings heartache, now it's not real, believe me

Remember all of those good things

You know you can't buy all those good things
