Good About Me - Joseph Arthur

It’s monday morning

You miss yesterday

Tomorrow’s coming again

So fast it’s already today

You’ll never get put down

Growing into your face

Moving to New York City

You got a line on getting paid

And you got two eyes that you always shade

Chaos and beauty

Trying to stay together on a razor blade

Always trying to prove you’re being saved

When they ask you what’s your church

You say I dance

When they say whatever happened to you

You say I never had a chance

I’m an open book

Come in take a look at me

I’m a boat that won’t float

Out at sea

And when I try to compete for a seat

On a more expensive train

In the end you find out

The pain’s the same as when the train was plain

You’re never giving in And you’re sure you will win

As soon as you know how to begin

And with spite you scream

I’m moving my scene

Away from all you backwards marching human beings

And that includes you

Cause I know what you dream about

And that includes you

'Cause I know what you seem to see

And that includes you

'Cause I don’t feel good about me Good about me around you
