A Change Would Do You Good
Glee Cast Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feedback baby, he's a flipped out cat
He's a platinum canary, drinkin' falstaff beer
Mercedes rule, and a rented lear
Bottom feeder insincere
High fed low fat pioneer
Pretty young girlfriend, daddy's jewel
A change
A change would do you good
Would do you good
A change would do you good
I think a change
A change would do you good
Would do you good
A change would do you good
God's little gift is on the rag
Poster girl posing in a fashion mag
Canine, feline, Jekyll and Hyde
Wear your fake fur on the inside
Queen of south beach, aging blues
Dinner's at six, wear your cement shoes
I thought you were singing your heart out to me
Your lips were syncing and now I see
A change
A change would do you good
Would do you good
A change would do you good
I think a change
A change would do you good
Would do you good
A change would do you good
I think a (change)
A change would do you good
Would do you good
A change would do you good
I think a change
A change would do you good
Would do you good
A change would do you good
Chasing dragons with plastic swords
Jack off Jimmy, everybody wants more
Scully and angel on the kitchen floor
And I'm calling Buddy on the ouija board
I've been thinking 'bout catching a train
Leave my phone machine by the radar range
Hello it's me, I'm not at home
If you'd like to reach me, leave me alone
I think a change
A change would do you good
Would do you good
A change would do you good
Hello, it's me, I'm not at home
If you'd like to reach me, leave me alone
I think a change
A change would do you good (would do you good)
A change would do you good
I-I think a change
A change would do you good
Would do you good
A change would do you good
Oooh, I need a change
A change would do you good
Would do you good now, now
A change would do you good
I think a change
A change would do you good
Would do you good
A change would do you good
Would do you good
