Lyrics

This Better Be Good

I saw you holding hands
With some guy wearing
Light blue Dockers pants
And I thought that I might just
Give you a chance to explain
What the hell is in your brain?

You know you pretend
You're going to Sea Bright
For the long weekend but
Something don't seem right
And your best friend Renee
Keeps on saying she saw you
At the Gap
With somebody in a baseball cap

And you know
This better be good
This better be good
Yeah, this better be good now baby
Cause you sure don't act like you should
This better be good
Good

I thought you could be trusted
But I guess
You can fess up
You're totally busted
Cause I swear
You were sharing
A hotdog with mustard
After work
With that same old polyester jerk

And you know
This better be good
This better be good
Yeah, this better be good now baby
Cause you sure don't act like you should
This better be good
Good

I know you'll deny it
But don't even try it
Your half-baked alibi's
So full of holes I
Think you might wanna stop
In at the donut shop
They might buy it
I sure won't

This better be good
This better be good
This better be good
This better be good
This better be good
This better be good
This better be good
Good
