What's Good

What’s good?  What’s good?

You can ask a Holy Roller – you can look to Hollywood

But what’s good?  What’s good?

When the answer is bi-polar, it’s easily misunderstood

What’s acceptable, respectable changes with the times

What was horrible, deplorable, may not be a crime

So, what’s good?  What’s good?

You can follow your own heart – but we’re way past childhood

What’s good?  What’s good?

We could tear the thing apart – but is it science or is it an art?

We are mannerless or standardless – too rigid or too loose

Our own happiness is sappiness – too easily abused

Sound of speech and self-controlled, pure of heart and mind

Love can teach the young and old to have courage and be kind

Can we yet say what’s right or wrong?  By now it seems we should know

What’s good?  What’s good?  What’s good?

People, get ready for what’s good

People, get ready for what’s good (it’s easily misunderstood)
