Text: Jack Johnson. Good People.
well you win- it's your show now
so what's it gonna be?
cause people will tune in-
how many train wrecks do we need to see?
before we lose touch of-
and we thought this was low
well it's bad, getting worse so
where'd all the good people go?
i've been changing channels
i don't see them on the tv shows
where'd all the good people go?
we got heaps and heaps of what we saw
they got this and that
with a rattle-a-tat
testing- 1 2
now what you gonna do?
bad news, misused
got too much to lose
gimme some truth
now whose side are we on?
whatever you say, turn on the boobtube
i'm in the mood to obey
so leave me astray, and by the way now
where'd all the good people go?
i've been changing channels
i don't see them on the tv shows
where'd all the good people go?
we got heaps and heaps of what we saw
sitting around feeling far away
so far away but i can feel the debris
can you feel it ?
you interrupt me from a friendly conversation
to tell me how great it's all gonna be
you might notice some hesitation
cause it's important to you, it's not important to me
but way down by the edge of your reasons
well it's begining to show
and all i really wanna know is
where'd all the good people go?
i've been changing channels
i don't see them on the tv shows
where'd all the good people go?
we got heaps and heaps of what we saw
[ chorus + verse 2 at the same time ]
they got this and that
with a rattle-a-tat
testing- 1 2
now what you gonna do?
bad news, misused
gimme some truth
you got too much to lose
now whose side are we on?
today, anyday- ok whatever you say,
wrong or resolute, i'm in the mood to obey
station through station
desensitizing the nation
where'd all the good people go ?
going..
going ..
gone.
