The Good Ones Lyrics
Where the city runs out of street lights
God knows, it's the way that it goes
That we're never gonna catch any daylight
They must have been the size of the city moon tonight
My little sister's eyes so wide
Must have been the size of the city
Did you get the good ones?
Did you get the real good ones?
Did you get the good ones?
The real good ones, what you got?
Take a water full, the water tastes good
I took the water and the water was hot
You got to burn your lips, keep your feelings alive
Once in a while, once in a while
You got to burn down your house, keep your dreaming alive
Did you get the good ones?
Oh, did you get the real good ones?
Did you get the good ones?
Did you get the good ones?
Oh, did you get the real good ones?
Did you get the good ones?
Did you get the real good ones?
Did you get me the good ones?
Oh, did you get the real good ones?
Did you get me the good ones?
Did you get the good ones?
Oh, did you get the real good ones?
Did you get me the good ones?
Amazing song. Must be about drugs!
Not necessarily about drugs. Like all good music/writing, it is filled with inuendo and double meanings. I took it to be a lamentation about loss of innocence(narcotic indulgence creates a major loss of innocence btw). The "little sister" with "eyes so wide", however, certainly does not mean cliched dilated eyes/use of endogens, hallucinogens, or amphetamines. Eyes being "wide" conveys the idea that somebody is seeing something for the first time (innocent). I think this was written to contrast a world filled with drug fueled debauchery with a more innocent existence (lil sis)....

Yeah defintely! I think it's about pills ("My little sister's eyes so wide...").
Must be one of my songs of the year!!
hahaha drugs? how funny it makes sense
yeah i think it's about drugs too but it can be anything.. 'once in a while, once in a while'
I love it mainly for 'My little sister's eyes so wide They must have been the size of the city moon tonight'
brill!
i wish there was something abit more snarly or nasty sounding in this song though.
some guitar or keyboard growling or somehing.. cool song though.
condoms? haha did u get the good ones? ya know, the lambskin...
I'm not as sick-minded as you guys, condom-men.
I think it`s about speed.Your lips burn on it and your feelings are amplified.
I heard this ages ago when I was younger and had weirder ideas, and I thought it seemed like they were collecting people for a cult. But yes, now I think drugs. lollity
"Take a water/fall/ the water tastes good." I'm sure.
yeah I think it's about drugs, very cool as well. The vocals are damn fantastic too!
