What's so bad about being bad?
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What's so wrong about being wrong?
There ain't no other reason to sing a song.
So if you're scared you won't belong,
What's so wrong about being wrong?
What's so right about being right?
All it's gonna get you is into fights.
So as you're laying alone tonight,
What's so right about being right?
Chorus:
And I try to be
What they ask of me.
I've brushed the dirt off from my knee's,
But it just came back as a blind disease
That'll clutch my head each time I sleep.
Now there ain't no one that I'll believe
Cos I just can't be what they ask of me.
What's so good about being good?
You're still gonna be misunderstood.
We've all gotta little bit of stink in our foot,
So what's so good about being good?
What's so bad about being bad?
I can think of alot worse things than that.
So there's questions I must ask,
What's so bad about being bad?
Chorus
