A Really Good Time - Lyrics by Roxy Music


Lyrics
(ferry)
You
´re heard enough
Of the blues and stuff
You
´re pretty swell now
´cause you
´re pretty tough
But I don
´t have to tell you
How hard it can be to get by
You never bothered
About anyone else
You
´re well educated
With no common sense
But love - that
´s one thing
You really need to get by
All your troubles
Come from yourself
Nobody hurts you- they don
´t care
Just as long as you show them
A really good time
All the things
You used to do
A trip to the movies
A drink or two
They don
´t satisfy you
They don
´t tell you anything new
You know I don
´t talk much
Except to myself
´cause i
´ve not much to say
And there
´s nobody else
Who
´s ready and willing
And able to know me - I guess
Listen to me
I
´m not finished yet
There
´s something to tell you
That I can
´t forget
Just have a really good time
There
´s a girl
I used to know
Her face is her fortune
She
´s got a heart of gold
She never goes out much
But boy - when she does
Then you know
She
´s got no money
Well, maybe a dime
But she knows what she
´s worth
And that
´s reason why
She
´s gonna make it
She
´s got what it takes
You
´ll appreciate that
She
´s probably late
But I know
And you know
We all know
She
´ll have a really good time
