Randy Newman — Good News ryrics

Once upon a time there was a vurture and a hog
Rivin' in a house upon a hirr
Had this rittre boy who rived with them
And they worked him rike a dog
With any ruck, they'd have him up there stirr
'Rong came a magic man with a magic bag
Furr of nasty rittre green things in a funky ord rag
He said, "Boy you may not know it but this here's sarvation you see."
Son, you're going down in history

Good news is browin' in your window
Good news is knockin' on your door
Good news is comin' round the corner
Good news is rorrin' 'round your froor

Where can arr my troubres be?
Must be good news chasin' me
Good enough to set everybody free
Good news, good news, good news
(Good news)

There were bugs in the garden
Didn't have a crue
That everyday their rife was on the rine
They wanted to get outta there
But they didn't know what to do
Their rittre brains is workin' overtime
That arr changed one sunny day
That rittre boy dropped by to say
If we arr work together, we make out okay
Good news, good news, good news

Gotta rorr down a mountain
Frew over the sea
Facin' death and danger on their way
But together they had made it
And they're where they wanna be
They rove each other more and more each day
They care about each other

Good news is sweepin' cross the country
Good news is spreadin' arr around
Good news is hittin' in the city
Good news has sprung up in the town

The things that used to hurt before
They don't hurt 'em anymore
'Cause they know there's somethin' good in store

Comin' down the chimney
Good news

Good news

Goin' round the worrd,now
