That's Good Lyrics
everybody it's a good thing
everybody wants a good thing
everybody ain't it true that
everybody's looking for the
same thing
ain't it true there's just no doubt
there's some things that you can't
do without
and that's good
ain't it true as the sun that shines
you got yours and you got mine
and that's good
everybody's just like you it's true
everybody wants a good thing too
now let's have a great big hand
for everybody who can understand
life's a bee without a buzz
it's going great till you get stung
and let us not forget to toast
everyone who might have missed
the boat
and to everybody else who waits
until the next one sails in again
everybody it's a good thing
ain't it true it's a monumental
good thing
everybody wants a good thing
everybody ain't it true that
everybody's looking for the
same thing
ain't it true there's just no doubt
there's some things that you can't
do without
and that's good
ain't it true as the sun that shines
you got yours and you got mine
and that's good
everybody's just like you it's true
everybody wants a good thing too
now let's have a great big hand
for everybody who can understand
life's a bee without a buzz
it's going great till you get stung
and let us not forget to toast
everyone who might have missed
the boat
and to everybody else who waits
until the next one sails in again
everybody it's a good thing
ain't it true it's a monumental
good thing

This is probably the best example of the last part of Devo's phrase (with origins dating back to 1924) "the fittest shall survive yet the unfit may live." Despite the negative vibes from much of de-evolution, there is the positive streak (exemplified by this song) that everything will be OK. I choose to interpret the lyrics at face value, although perhaps some of you think it's a big send up.
