Good Gone Girl - Lyrics and discussion

Recommended Posts

I hear "she's having to chose", not "she's happy to chose"

I don't think she is happy" to chose somebody to use" because " her goodness gets her down"! She feels guilty about having to fool a man to earn a living; she'd rather be in a true love relationship! She has to, but she would rather not!

---------------------------

From Mana's post of July 1st:

Does this sound right?

 

Let me know, and I'll update the first post.

Good Gone Girl

 

 

Could you believe

The same old story

It never bores me, though I've heard it all before

Her name was Georgia

And she was gorgeous

When she adored ya, the whole room would get to know

 

(...)last

(...)do your best

The pain of a wounded soldier

In a rush 'cause she's gettin' older

 

Hanging out in the fancy bars

With the boys that play guitar

(...) I've got to warn ya

Gonna make it out in California

 

Hey you, what's a good girl like you doing in this crazy world?

Well it's good gone girl

Dance, dance to the life you wanted

When you were only 17

With a good girl dream

 

Ooooooooo

Good gone girl

 

Could you believe

The same old phonies

Those painted ponies

That you've ridden all before

Her name was April

But she was hateful

Enough to make you want to run right out the door

 

I can tell you what you want the most

After the champagne toast

When the end of the night gets tricky

Don't you know that beggars can't be picky

 

Lookin' out for a man who's golden

Doesn't matter if his wallet is rollin'

Comin' at you like a desperate hunter

Sugar daddy but he's just a munter

 

Hey you, what's a good girl like you doing in this crazy world?

Well it's good gone girl

Dance, dance to the life you wanted

When you were only 17

With a good girl dream

 

Hey you, what's a good girl like you doing in this crazy world?

Well it's good gone girl

Dance, dance to the life you wanted

When you were only 17

With a good girl dream

 

Ooooooooo

Good gone girl

 

Ooooooooo

Good gone girl

 

She's walking around

All over the town

Needs somebody to notice but the goodness gets her down

She's happy to choose

Somebody to use

Good gone girl she's got nothin' left to lose

 

She's walking around

All over the town

Needs somebody to notice but the goodness gets her down

She's happy to choose

Somebody to use

Good gone girl she's got nothin' left to lose

 

Ooooooooo

Good gone girl

 

Link doesnt work for me....:sneaky2:

Well From what Ive heard I made out this:

 

Could you believe

The same old story

Yeah it never bores me, though I've heard it all before

Her name was Georgia

And she was gorgeous

When she adored ya the whole room would get to know

 

(...)have gone straight to the last

Danced with the devil do your best

Play the wounded soldier

In a rush just to get to know ya

 

Hanging out in the fancy bars

With the boys who play guitar

Though that I had to warn ya

She's gonna make it out to California

 

Hey you, what's a good girl like you doing in this crazy world?

Well it's good gone girl

Dance, dance, to the life you wanted

Lookin' out for a man who's golden

Doesn't matter if his wallet is rollin'

He's looking at you like a desperate hunter

Sugar daddy but he's just a munter

I thought he said "doesn't matter if he's old;he's rollin'"

 

Yes. :thumb_yello:

 

Think we can change the last verse to:

 

I can tell you what you want the most

Hang around for the champagne toast.

When the end of the night gets tricky

Don't you know that beggars can't be picky?

 

Looking out for a man who's golden

Doesn't matter if he's old, he's rollin'.

Coming at you like a desperate hunter.

Sugar daddy but he's just a munter.

 

And the chorus is:

 

Hey you, what's a good girl like you doing in this crazy world?

Where's the good gone girl?

Dance, dance to the life you wanted

When you were only 17

With your good girl dream.

Ok revised edition!

 

Would you believe the same old story

Hey it never bores me tho I've heard it all before

Her name was Georgia and she was gorgeous

when she adored ya

the whole room would get to know

Like a movie that filled with lust

Coming at you with a DD bust

at the bed of a wounded soldier

in a rush cos she's getting older

hanging out in the fancy bars

with the boys who can play guitar

Listen up cos I've got to warn ya

she's gotta make it outta California

 

Hey You what's a good girl,

like you doing in this crazy world

this the good gone girl

dance,dance to the life you wanted

but you were only 17 with a good girl dream

 

Oooooo Good Gone Girl

 

Could you believe the same old phonies,those painted ponies

that you've ridden all before

her name was April but she was hateful

enough to make you want to run right out the door

I can tell you what you want the most

Hanging around for the champagne toast

When the end of the night gets tricky

don't you know that beggars can't be picky

Looking out for a man who's golden

doesn't matter if he's old he's rollin'

Coming at you like desperate hunter

Sugar Daddy but he's just a munter

 

Hey you what's a gone girl

like you doing in this crazy world

this the good gone girl

dance,dance to the life you wanted

but you were only 17

with a good girl dream

REPEAT

 

Good Gone Girl

 

She's walking around all over the town

needs somebody to notice

but the goodness gets her down

she's happy to choose, somebody to use

Good Gone Girl she's got nothing left to lose

REPEAT
