lyrics

It was a good idea
It was a good idea
It was a good Idea ain't never had a better idea that was quite like this
Met my sweetheart there
Met my sweetheart there
Met my sweetheart there with here golden eyes and the flowers in her hair

Jokers on the corner
Laughing at his fate
That's some kind of ignorant disgrace

It was a good idea
It was a good idea
It was a good idea, ain't never had a better idea that was quite like this

It was a great reward
It was a great reward
It was a great reward the pen is mightier than the sword, it makes a mighty fine sword
It was a good idea
It was a good idea
It was a good idea, ain't never had a better idea that was quite like this

Jokers in the backyard
Drowning in his blood
When he sinks he can't see the flood

It was a good idea
It was a good idea
It was a good idea, ain't never had a better idea that was quite like this
It was a good idea, ain't never had a better idea that was quite like this
It was a good idea, ain't never had a better idea that was quite like this
