A Good Thing Songtext
von J.Lately

We like to ruin a good thing
Assuming the worst that you could think
Life depends on how you′re looking
So why's it gotta be bummer
Could be kicked back like it′s summer instead
We like to ruin a good thing

Habitual foot shooter
Do a 180 on a scooter
You didn't know I had tricks
Going for a ride get in loser
Too scared of getting catfished
Lost the money underneath my mattress
Pay the full amount on all my taxes
I've been losing backwards
And I′ve been getting good arguing
And you′ve been getting good at using bad words
Always so judgmental how'd we go and get so good at using adverbs
I thought we were on the same page I didn′t know you felt so adverse
Coulda slowed down but


We like to ruin a good thing
Assuming the worst that you could think
Life depends on how you're looking
So why′s it gotta be bummer
Could be kicked back like it's summer instead
We like to ruin a good thing

Why am I built this way
Why can′t I chill and just breathe
I could take sunny days
Turn them to ice hail and sleet
The grass is greener where wet it
Probably could have paid the watering bill
Pass some weed I need a medic
I don't really like to swallow these pills
After all the back and forth
The bad days that I practiced for
I still can't chill and just breathe

We like to ruin a good thing
Assuming the worst that you could think
Life depends on how you′re looking
So why′s it gotta be bummer
Could be kicked back like it's summer instead
We like to ruin a good thing


And I′ve been known to do a backflip
Run it back three times hat trick
Jumping hoops like a big cat trick
All this lip service need some chapstick
Should focus on my bankroll
Need more sand around my ankle
Looking pretty clear from every angle
Had a good plan until we changed those
It's easier to run than face it
More I know the more that I′m becoming anxious
I've been on the ropes hit with combinations
I don′t even want all the domination
Probably mess it up
Used to have it all and the lesson was just that

We like to ruin a good thing
Assuming the worst that you could think
Life depends on how you're looking
So why's it gotta be bummer
Could be kicked back like it′s summer instead
We like to ruin a good thing
