Lyrics

Good Practice Makes Permanent

Good practice makes permanent

Good practice makes permanent

Good practice makes permanent

Good practice makes permanent

All sons and sisters are on their own

Brothers, blisters, leave when they're done

I win, you win, wherever you've gone

All sons...

I am what you want to be like

They had imagined of me

You are so beautiful to me

You are so wonderful to me

Good practice makes it permanent

Good permanent makes good practice

At living like them, but they're all...

I am what you want to be like

They had imagined of me
