And I'm wasting time with you
You'll never be mine
It's not the way I see it
'Cause I feel you're already mine
Whenever you're with me (oh, oh, oh)
People always talkin' â??bout
I don't care about your other girls
Just be good to me (oh, oh, oh)
Friends are always tellin' me
You're a user
I don't care what you do to them
Just be good to me (oh, oh, oh)
You may have many others
But I know when you're with me
You are all mine
Friends always seem to listen
To the bad things that you do
You never do them to me (oh, oh, oh)
People always talkin' â??bout
Your reputation
I don't care about your other girls
Just be good to me (Oh, oh, oh)
Friends are always tellin' me
You're a user
I don't care what you do to them
Just be good to me (oh, oh, oh)
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Just be good to me
Life is a game of chances
So I'll take my chance with you
And you, I won't try to change
We talk about it and I
Never had a piece of you
And to have all of nothing (oh, oh, oh)
But just be good to me
In the mornin'
Just be good to me
In the afternoon or evenin', oh, yeah
Just be good to me (oh, oh, oh)
I'll give you love, I will smother you
I'll give affection, I won't bother you
I'll be good to you, you'll be good to me, yeah, yeah
Just be good to me (oh, oh, oh)
I'm like a cherry pie, I will tie you down
When you need me, I'll be around
I'll be good to you, you'll be good to me
And we'll always be together, be together, ha
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la (oh)
Just be good to me (oh, oh, oh)
(I love you so) La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la (be nice to me, be sweet to me)
Just be good to me (oh, oh, oh)
(We won't worry, no don't worry â??bout what the people say)
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la (we'll be good to each other)
(Oh, each and every day) just be good to me (oh, oh, oh)
(I'll be good to you) La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la (you'll be good to me)
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la (we will love each other, ooh, yes, we will)
Just be good to me (oh, oh, oh)
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Just be good to me (oh, oh, oh)

In "Dub Be Good To Me," Faithless (featuring Dido) sings about a complicated relationship with a person who has a less than stellar reputation. The singer's friends tell her that she is wasting her time with this person, as they will never be hers. However, the singer sees things differently and feels that this person is already hers. Despite this, the person's reputation proceeds them, and people are always talking about how they use other people. The singer does not care about their other girls, but she wants this person to just be good to her.
Throughout the song, the singer makes it clear that she is willing to take a chance on this person and will not try to change them. She says that she has never had a piece of them and is willing to have all or nothing. In return, she just wants this person to be good to her, no matter the time of day.
Furthermore, the singer insists that she will give this person love, affection, and will not bother them. She believes that if she is good to them, then they will be good to her. The song ends with the chorus repeating that this person should just be good to her, emphasizing the importance of this request in the relationship.
