Goodbye Mister Good Guy - Dave Edmunds

Goodbye Mister Good Guy

Dave Edmunds

(Bill Murray - Pat Meager, SWAN SONG SS 59409, 1979)

Goodbye Mr. Good Guy, come back teenage queen
She tells me I've been killing her with kindness
Smiling a lot, playing on my guitar
But she hit me with a line
About missing out on the good times
Couldn't take any more

He kept her in attention in the center
Delivered her with roses to my door
She rocked the night away
Fooling with her date
What's she taking me for?

Goodbye Mr. Good Guy, come back teenage queen
I guess you had a nice try
Living in your dreams
Goodbye careless hunger
You thought you'd steal the show
But taking away my thunder
Hmm, what do you know?

I'm going to be the man you love to hate
So long Nice Guy, you'll appreciate
I'll take the trouble line
I'm telling you you're mine
If it ain't too late

Goodbye Mr. Good Guy, come back teenage queen
I guess you had a nice try
Living in your dreams
Goodbye careless hunger
You thought you'd steal the show
But taking away my thunder
Hmm, what do you know?

I'm going to be the man you love to hate
So long Nice Guy, you'll appreciate
I'll take the trouble line
Now I'm telling you you're mine if it ain't too late
Goodbye Mr. Good Guy, come back teenage queen
