Growing up, the world was a bright big place, full of happiness and endless possibilities.
My mum didn't tell me, but she showed me every single day,
We can be selfish, but there is another way.
Be good, be kind, be selfless. You never know know the struggles someone else is going though. Leave the world a little bitty better than it is right now.
When I got a little bit older, I saw endless bitching and moaning and heaps of complainin'. With endless capacity for compassion and empathy, why only focus on the things that bring each other down? People projecting their own insecurities, trying to make others feel just as bad as themselves.
[Chorus]
But not me,
I just wana be a good fucking person,
Say fuckyou to negativity!
With kindness, compassion I'll help those around me.
I just wana be a good fucking person,
Leave the world a little bitty better than it is right now.
With so much attention on money and fame, endlessly, needlessly, wanting for more. What if we all took a step back and saw, by helping each other and not just ourselves, we'd make life much better for the whole human race. Get rid of the stock markets and banks all the same, profits over people puts us to shame. For so many, enough is never enough.
[Chorus]
But not me,
I just wana be a good fucking person,
Say fuck you to negativity!
With kindness, compassion I'll help those around me.
I just wana be a good fucking person,
Leave the world a little bitty better than it is right now.
Life can bring us down, I know it's true. But wouldn't it be better if you knew there'd always be someone there for you? If you took a moment to help all around you, a friend, a neighbour, a colleague or even a stranger. We could create a world where we're all the for each other. Push each other up, don't let our own shit get in the way. Take a deep breath and just try a little harder, listen with our hearts and not our ego, we might just find out that more of us are alike.
[Chorus]
So, just try to be a good fucking person,
Say fuck you to negativity!
With kindness, compassion help those around you.
Just try to be a good fucking person,
Leave the world a little bitty better than it is right now.
