So Good
R.E.G Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the middle of Paris with a Dominican bar
Great head on her shoulders, she probably studied abroad
She transferred to Harvard, from King's College in march
She says that I'm her favorite
'Cause she admires the art of Michelangelo with the flow
Picasso with the bars
She's well put together like a piece of Gershwin
Smile, and pack your bags real good baby
Cause you'll be gone for a while
Girl, tell me how you feel
What your fantasy
I see us on a beach down in Mexico
You can put your feet up
Be my señorita
We ain't gotta rush
Just take it slow
You'll be in the high life
Soaking up the sunlight
Anything you want is yours
I had you living life like you should
You say you never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la
Suffering from first class cabin fever
Five-hour layovers from Norway to Egypt
I'm to the point like the pyramids of Giza
Still lean to the left like the tower out in Pisa
I'm feeling single, baby
I could use a feature
Swagger like Caesar, I'll get you a visa
We can go to Italy, and maybe see the Coliseum
I'll be Da Vinci if you be my Mona Lisa
Smile, and pack your bags real good, baby
'Cause you'll be gone for a while
Girl, tell me how you feel
What your fantasy
I see us on a beach down in Mexico
You can put your feet up
Be my señorita
We ain't gotta rush
Just take it slow
You'll be in the high life
Soaking up the sunlight
Anything you want is yours
I had you living life like you should
You say you never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
Well, I been feeling singular
How about let's make it plural
Spin the globe, whatever it lands that's where we'll go
We'll hit up Europe, yep, and spend some euro
And maybe visit Berlin, the wall's with the murals
This is your month baby
Sign of the Virgo
Private reservation, glasses full of Merlot
A rose, a burgundy
Travel like turbo
Brush up on your español
We'll Barcelona bounce
Smile, and pack your bags real good, baby
'Cause you'll be gone for a while
Girl, tell me how you feel
What your fantasy
I see us on a beach down in Mexico
You can put your feet up
Be my señorita
We ain't gotta rush
Just take it slow
You'll be in the high life
Soaking up the sunlight
Anything you want is yours
I had you living life like you should
You say you never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la
You never had it so good
La la la la la la
In R.E.G's song "So Good," he paints a picture of a lavish lifestyle with an international flair. He begins by describing his surroundings, with a German beer and Cuban cigar in hand, in the middle of Paris with a Dominican bar. He then goes on to reference a woman with a great head on her shoulders, who studied abroad and transferred to Harvard from King's College in March. She's well versed in the arts and has a Renaissance style. The night is picture perfect as they pack their bags because they'll be gone for a while.
The chorus sees R.E.G asking the woman about her fantasy as he describes a beach in Mexico where they can take it slow and enjoy themselves. He promises her the high life and anything her heart desires, saying that she's never had it so good. The second verse has R.E.G feeling "singular", which he quickly turns into "plural" with a suggestion to spin the globe and go wherever they land. Europe is on the cards, with a trip to Berlin and Barcelona among the possibilities.
"So Good" is a song about escapism and living life to the fullest. R.E.G envisions a life of luxury, with a woman by his side, exploring the world and taking things slow. He wants to treat her like a queen and give her everything she's ever wanted. The song paints a vivid picture of a life of adventure and indulgence.
