Every Good Boy Does Fine

Have we turned out to be
how we wanted?
how we wanted?
How I dreamed such big dreams
when I was small and convinced
I’d be wanted
I’d be wanted
I’d be thrown upon a stage
(that TV told me so)
so I believed
(that TV told you so)
something’s in my way
it sold it to us all the same way
I’m a rare dying breed
and I’ll make it if I’m patient
and every good boy does fine
and every thoughtful deed meant to please
We’ll be noticed
I’ll be noticed
I’d be thrown upon a stage
(that TV told me so)
so I believed
(that TV told you so)
it sold it to us all the same way
the same way
I’d be thrown upon a stage
that TV told me so
I believed
It told you something’s in my way
it sold it to us all the same way
it sold it to us all the same way
I’d be thrown upon a stage
(that TV told me so)
so I believed
(that TV told you so)
something’s in my way
it sold it to us all the same way
it sold it to us all the same way
