Lyrics for Good Girls
Killing your idols is a chore And it's such a fucking bore 'Cause I don't need them anymore So, maybe if you just got some guts We'd kill them with a thousand cuts And say we did it out of love So save your breath Give a little of what you have left Do they know something I don't? Is it easier when you don't have to count to ten? When you don't have to pretend? I want to know that feeling Is it easier when you don't have to start again When you don't want to make amends? I want to know that feeling Good girls don't cry And good girls don't lie And good girls justify but I don't Good girls don't die And good girls stay alive And good girls satisfy but I won't They tell me I'm hellbent on revenge I cut my teeth on weaker men I won't apologise again And, I never had a taste for liars Or the uniquely uninspired 'Cause I don't need to be desired Is it easier when you don't have to count to ten? When you don't have to pretend? I want to know that feeling Is it easier when you don't have to start again When you don't want to make amends? I want to know that feeling Good girls don't cry And good girls don't lie And good girls justify but I don't Good girls don't die And good girls stay alive And good girls satisfy but I won't No, I won't (ha) Killing your idols is a chore And it's such a fucking bore But we don't need them anymore We don't need them anymore
