Goodman Goodbye

GOODMAN GOODBYE
Neil Sedaka/Phil Cody


Hey there, gotta beware, life goes on here seriously.
No time for harmony, just a lotta hot air.
Go join the underground, if you think the world has lost its mind,
You oughta hang around with people of your own kind.

Gotta lotta nerve to call me "Brother",
After all we're nothin' to each other.
My name's Goodman, my good man, goodbye.

Seems like every year people like you come waltzin' by,
Drift in and outa here, like a butterfly.
I've seen 'em come and go, glittering queens and movie stars,
Don't give a damn you know, whoever the hell you are.

Man, you better think again if you've been thinkin' there's a chance for dancin' here.
Here, we've found a little peace and we're determined to preserve it, do I make myself clear?

Hey there, gotta beware, life goes on here seriously.
No time for harmony, just a lotta hot air.
Go join the underground, if you think the world has lost its mind,
You oughta hang around with people of your own kind.

Gotta lotta nerve to call me "Brother",
After all we're nothin' to each other.
My name's Goodman, my good man, goodbye.
