Lyrics
Everyday seems like a lifetime
Yesterday so long ago.
Move on up and take your chances
Luck and you are all you know
Take all those mistakes that always let you down
Make a start begin to turn it all around
You've got to Be Good, Be Good, Be Good,
That's all you need to be
In some ways you'll never hear them
Preaching like they always do
Move ahead and it's no wonder
They will never be like you.
All though you are weary and life's let you down
Follow your conviction turn it all around
You've got to Be Good, Be Good, Be Good,
That's all you need to be
Take all those mistakes that always let you down
Make a start begin to turn it all around
You've got to Be Good, Be Good, Be Good,
That's all you need to be
Everyday seems like a lifetime
Yesterday so long ago.
Move on up and take your chances
Luck and you are all you know
You've got to Be Good, Be Good, Be Good,
That's all you need to be
