Good Night On Earth

Once upon a time, mom and dad felt fine Thought it was time for a birth Ever since then, the trouble never ends But it's a good night on Earth Gettin' up and goin' is a sweet lament Doin' what you've gotta do is all you got Gather up the things and run to the void Remember what you've been taught Soak it all in like tonic and gin Everything, for what it's worth Is relative, but look, my friend It's a good night on Earth Once upon a time, I was feeling fine And you know that time is now Nothing gonna wreck it, you know I can't deflect it I always do somehow Everyone's a critic, "I can't stand Eels" So says Colin Firth Rain on my parade, then the clouds fade It's a good night on Earth
