Good Deed

(album: Black Is Beautiful - 2018)

Well, I saw a ghost last night
On my way back home in the darkest night
I was all alone in a quiet street
In a quiet part of a quiet town

Made me shiver and shake
In a way I've never had before
But I'm telling you all and I'm very sure
This won't happen again no more

It had a human shape made out of cloudy smoke
In the reflections I saw myself, but I was grey and old
I said: "Who are you, are you real or not?"
He said: "Son I'm your ghost
And I was sent because I gotta tell you
There's a better way for you to go"

Well, if you wanna reach the Holy Land
You really gotta understand

Good deed, a good deed that's what you need
A good deed, a good deed, dedededede
A good deed, if you wanna be a real good dude
A good deed is what you need indeed
A good deed, dedededede

He said: "Everyone has a ghost by his side
But you'll only see us when you die
And in this case this exception was made
'Cause you are about to make a mistake"

There's no time to waste boy lemme tell you so
'Cause you don't know when you gotta go
So you better do what I tell you now

Catch up in doing well, you're way behind your time
And if you go on like this you will end up in hell
Where you ain't worth a dime

I said: "Ghost thank you for telling me this
Now I know it's a chance I don't wanna miss
But tell me can't I go on in sin
Then I'll do good and start all over again?"

He said: "The more you do bad the less you can
Have the chance to be a better man"

Good deed, a good deed that's what you need
A good deed, a good deed, dedededede
A good deed, if you really wanna be a good dude
A good deed you really need indeed
A good deed, dedededede
Good deed, a good deed that's what you need
A good deed, a good deed, dedededede
A good deed, if you really wanna be a good dude
A good deed you really need indeed
A good deed, dedededede

Dedededede
You really need indeed
A good deed
Dedededede
Good deed, good deed
If you wanna be a real good dude
Good deed, a good deed you really need indeed
Dedededede, dededededede
Dedededede dedededede, dedededededededede
