Momus - I Want To Be Good lyrics
[Momus - I Want To Be Good lyrics]
I'd be born as one of the men
Who travel around putting money around
And become everyone's friend
Who distribute for free an amazing machine
That can turn rubbish to food
If I hadn't been born to be bad
I'd be born to be good
I began as a bit of a crook
And I'm known for the money I took
From the disadvantaged and dispossessed
Leaving them destitute
I'd rob the whores at the orphange doors
But, I'm misunderstood
I had to be bad to be me
But I want to be good
I'll become a good old boy
And commit philantrophy
Improve the neighbourhoods I destroyed
And go down in history
Erect a few statues, endow a few colleges
All named after me i had to be bad to be bad
But, I want to be good
This song comes thanks, you see
To donations from people like me
The Dastardly Foundation and
Kervorkian Industries well I'd hate to be
Known for turning humanity into pots of glue
I was born to be bad but I want to be good
