So Good
bob. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Drinking a German beer with a Cuban cigar
In the middle of Paris with a Dominican broad
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 by Gershwin
Renaissance style, tonight is picture perfect
So smile, and pack your bags real good, baby
'Cause you'll be gone for a while while while while

Girl tell me how you feel, what your fantasy oh
I see us on a beach down in Mexico
You can put your feet up, be my senorita
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'll have 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 lay overs from Norway to Egypt
I'm to the point like the pyramids of Giza
Still I'm 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'll be my Mona Lisa
Now 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 oh
I see us on a beach down in Mexico
You can put your feet up, be my senorita
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'll have 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 Euros
And maybe visit Berlin, the wall's with the murals
This is your month baby, sign of the Virgo
Private reservations, glasses full of Merlot
A rose, a burgundy, traveling like turbo
Brush up on your Español, we’re Barcelona bound
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 oh
I see us on a beach down in Mexico
You can put your feet up, be my senorita
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'll have 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

Haha I would listen to this song on repeat on my flight to and from from this awesome 5 star resort I went to as a high school graduation present.

I didnt know anyone when I got there and was just barely 18. But by the 3rd day there I created a whole gang of other young adults from 16-23.

They would all gather at the same meeting spot at the cool little lounge of by the beach every night, waiting for me to arrive with my backpack full of liquor id snag from the hotel liquor cabinet (room service would restock it every morning).

They were about 6 girls and 7 guys from Britain, Australia, Germany and America, and I became their de facto leader because I was really good at making everything we did fun by chatting up strangers effortlessly wherever we went.

That was by far one of the coolest experiences I ever had traveling. And this song always makes me remember how free and spontaneous I felt being there.

Good times.



@Ch4rlz_ThA_Princ3

Haha thats awesome. I actually heard this for the first time when i was staying at a 5 star resort in Cancun that my mom took me to as a high school graduation present.

I didnt know anyone there but i would just sit at the swing bar by the pool, get a half dozen drinks in me and then id start chatting up anyone and everyone there.

By the 3rd day, i had my own little crew of 16-20 year olds from Britain, US, Norway and Australia, and they would all be waiting for me at the leather couches by the beach (typically reserved for VIP massages & such during the day but were abandoned at night).

7pm sharp every evening Id show up with a backpack full of liquor from my condo and theyd all cheer for me as I arrived. Probably 7 girls and 5 guys and I was the ringleader.

Man that was the best high I've ever experienced and ive done almost every drug since then.

@YourPlug1

I think we can all say we took this era for granted because we’ll never get this kind of music again. The early 2010’s was the best years ever.

@trashguy9762

Yes...🙏🙏.

@SD-td3lw

Everyone thinks the music was better when they were younger. You're just nostalgic.

@bluebird0064

S D personally I really do enjoy early 2010 music more the what we have now but I do see your point.

@JetpacksWasYes2

@Uncle Calen People say the same thing every decade. Quit regurgitating bs others have said. I'm sure you'll enjoy some music this decade.

@bluebird0064

JetpacksWasYes I actually do enjoy a lot of modern music we have now it’s just that a lot of my favorites are in the early 2010s.
