Good For Nothing Lyrics

The man
Who lives upstairs is on a mission
He just talks he never listens
He just talks he never listens
And he complains
Complains bout my love of music
Says it's too loud and he hates it
He don't like me cos I don't fit
I said I don't care
Don't care what you think about me
Me and my friends at least we're happy
Tell me are you happy?
What are you good for?
Tell me what you're good for
You're good for nothing
You're good for nothing

Over at the nightclub
The club night doorman has a problem
Smart shoes only I ain't got none
He says smart shoes or you don't come
I said that's not right
I don't cause trouble and I don't fight
Just want fun and dancing all night
All night
What are you good for?
Tell me what you're good for
You're good for nothing
You're good for nothing

You keep me up all night
But you move too loud
Get a job, get a life
Tell me what are you good for (woo!)

Calm down
Take a seat
Life's hard but don't take it out on me
Before you criticize
Take a long hard look at yourself
You're just a screwup like everyone else
And I feel bad for you

I'm good at wasting my time
Fucking up my life
Hanging out
Yeah I'm the best waste of space about
Good at drinking too much
Flicking ash in a paper cup
But I don't count sheep
Good for nothing can't repeat
I'm good at wasting my time
Fucking up my life
Hanging out
Yeah I'm the best waste of space about
I get no kicks from champagne
And I cry cry in a daze
But I don't count sheep
Good for nothing can't repeat
No no, good for nothing no no, no no bueno para nada

You keep me up all night
But you move too loud
Get a job, get a life
Tell me what are you good for (woo!)

Calm down
Take a seat
Life's hard but don't take it out on me
Before you criticize
Take a long hard look at yourself
You're just a screwup like everyone else
And I feel bad for you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
