Song Lyrics[]

You've seen they set five floors above
100 hopes or souls saying here she comes
She glides, she floats, she moves through air
I'm just playing about a busted mare

Best lift bottom, it feels like sin
Give me the water I dive right in
Every poem that's rhymed in elusive line
Rode up stack just burning my mind

Something good this way comes
Something good this way comes
All the world will stop and turn instead
Something good this way comes
This way comes

Seeing about the jungle, the Queen of the Nile
She looks like Ginger from Gilligan's Isle
We'll fix the boat, the sewer, the way we would say
Like mermaids at night, we'll swim in the bay

She is the reason they invented guitars
She's a comet messing up the stars
Sim text legs like an angel's step
My heart, my soul, my mind, my head

Something good this way comes
Something good this way comes
All the world will stop and turn instead
Something good this way comes
This way comes

And though the world will stop and turn its head
And darkness walks away, darkness walks away

(Instrumental break)

Sweet singing lullabies
She couldn't know how she memorize
She glides, she floats, she moves through air
Her eyes move up and she sees me there

Something good this way comes
Something good this way comes
All the world will stop and turn instead
Something good this way comes
This way comes
OW!

Hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey (Hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey)
Who-o-o-o-o-a (Who-o-o-o-o-a)
Who-o-o-o-o-a (Who-o-o-o-o-a)
Hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey (Hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey)
OWWWWWWWWWWW!
Something good this way comes
Something good this way comes
