Lyrics for singles by Fine Young Cannibals

The Good Thing

The one good thing in my life
Has gone away and I don't want to know why
She's gone away
I don't know where
Somewhere I can't follow her

The one good thing is taking too long       ( Hey hey hey ooh ooh-ooh ooh... )
My back was turned and she was gone         ( Hey hey hey )

Good thing, where have you gone             ( Goo goobie doo )
My good thing, you've been gone too long    ( Good thing )
Goo goo goobie doo

People say I should fall dead
New friend tomorrow, don't get upset
People say she's doing fine
Look at your friend and see her sometime

That's not or why I'm after what I want to hear ( Hey hey hey ooh ooh-ooh ooh... )
I want to hear, she wants me near               ( Hey hey hey )

[chorus]

Then one day she came back
I was so happy that I didn't act
Morning came into my room                       ( Hey hey hey ooh ooh-ooh ooh... )
God I've been dreaming like a fool              ( Hey hey hey )

Good thing, my my my good thing                 ( goo goobie goo )
My my my good thing, where have you gone        ( good thing )
Goo goo goobie doo )
My (good thing), hee hee my good thing          ( goo goobie doo )
My (good thing) girl, where have you gone       ( good thing )
Goo goo goobie doo good thing
It's been so long, good God girl                ( goo goobie doo good thing )
Good God girl, good God girl                    ( good thing )

Baby Baby Don't Look Back

Never had the good things only money could buy
I drive my car but I haven't got a car to drive
Never had a holiday in a tropical sun
Good times look rough, they're never going to come

Oh I know that time's are bad
and they make you want to cry
Don't be sad
We'll get by

Baby baby don't look back
It won't do no good
Baby baby don't look back
I'm going to leave and I think that you should

When I spent my life (( in a place like this ))
On the first bus out (( I'm going to get myself a lift ))
If you understand (( well that's alright ))
If you want to go (( it's got to be the night ))

Oh I know that time's are bad           { B-A ohs }
and it makes you want to cry
Don't feel sad
We'll get by

Baby baby don't look back
It won't do no good
Baby baby don't look back
I'm going to leave and I think that you should

{ guitar solo on chorus }
{ 1 phrase }

Never had the good things (( only money could buy ))
I drive my car but (( I haven't got a car to drive ))

Oh I know that time's are bad
and they make you want you to cry
Don't be sad
We'll get by

Baby baby don't look back
It won't do no good
Baby baby don't look back
I'm going to leave and I think that you should

Baby baby don't look back
It won't do no good
Baby baby don't look back
I'm going to leave and I think that you should
Baby baby don't look back, oh no ya

She Drives Me Crazy

I can't stop the way I feel
Things you do don't seem real
Tell you what I got in mind
'cause we're runnin' out of time
Won't you ever set me free?
This waitin' 'round's killin' me

She drives me crazy
Like no one else
She drives me crazy
And I can't help myself

I can't get any rest
People say I'm obsessed
Everything that's serious lasts
But to me there's no surprise
What I have, I knew was true
Things go wrong, they always do

[chorus]

I won't make it on my own
No one likes to be alone

[chorus]
