The Good Guys Lyrics

[00:02.04] (Melanie Safka)
[00:16.29] I'm tired of seeing the picture
[00:20.24] You're painting of yourself
[00:23.41] You with the borrowed colors
[00:26.49] That you picked from someone else
[00:30.25] Maybe you're a movie
[00:33.72] Or some best selling book
[00:36.92] I know your mirrored mornings
[00:39.94] In rehearsal of your looks
[00:43.78] Oh your cause is oh so beautiful
[00:49.04] You're ready to begin
[00:52.78] You're going to play the good guys
[00:55.74] By singing the good guys hymn
[00:59.54] Ah you're building the halls with the outer walls
[01:02.29] But you haven't got a thing within
[01:07.09] The innocence of children
[01:10.35] Is the manner you suppose
[01:14.04] And you can describe in full detail
[01:17.32] What we already know
[01:20.63] Ah your cause is all so pretty
[01:23.86] And we're ready to begin
[01:27.75] We're going to play the good guys
[01:30.95] By singing the good guys hymn
[01:33.90] Ah we're building the halls with the outer walls
[01:37.66] But we haven't got a thing within
[01:42.70] But if we keep on trying
[01:45.59] Though our purpose isn't clear
[01:48.76] We just may move the universe
[01:52.48] We'll learn to really care
[01:56.07] Eventually the whole facade
[01:59.42] Becomes more than a whim
[02:02.72] By starting to build on the outside
[02:05.97] We're gonna fill up the walls within
[02:08.96] By starting to build on the outside
[02:12.84] We'll fill up the wallls within
[02:26.56] Eventually the whole facade
[02:29.91] Becomes more than a whim
[02:33.46] And by starting to build on the outside
[02:36.38] We're gonna fill up the walls
[02:38.56] We're gonna fill up the walls within
[03:08.55]
