Good as It Gets lyrics
Good as It Gets
Kids:
(passing through the hallways)
Isn't it great to be a senior?
Isn't it cool to be high strung?
Isn't it hot to have a steady?
Isn't it tops just being young?
Bein' a kid is havin' it easy,
No hassles, no regrets.
Isn't it great, cool, hot, tops, hip?
Yeah, this is as good as it gets!
(toffee enters, dressed in black.)
Boys:
There goes toffee,
Girls:
Dressed in black again.
Kids:
Hoping against all hope
That jonny comes back again....
She's a teen-
Teen-
Teen-
Teen-ager in mourning,
From the morning light
To that last dismissal bell.
Just a teen-
Teen-
Teen-
Teen-ager in mourning.
Where once the girl was effervescent,
She's now a poster-child depressant,
A problematic post-pubescent,
A convalescing adolescent,
A teenager in hell!
Candy:
(pointing to a banner announcing the prom)
Hey, look, toffee. The senior prom. Ain't it swell?
Toffee:
I won't be going to my senior prom.
(everyone gasps.)
Coco:
Why not toffee?
Toffee:
Because i haven't got a boyfriend...anymore!
Joey:
Jeez, toffee. Lighten up.
Josh:
It's been three whole weeks.
All:
Isn't it great?
Isn't it cool?
Isn't it hot?
Isn't it tops?
Toffee:
I've got no boyfriend.
That's my fate.
I've got no future.
I've got no date!
Kids:
Bein' a kid is havin' it easy,
No hassles, no regrets.
Girls:
Isn't it great, cool, hot, tops, hip...?
Boys:
And isn't it swell, neat, keen, wild, fab...?
Kids:
Yeah!
Toffee:
Is this as good as it...?
Kids:
This is as good as it gets!
