That I Would Be Good

That I Would Be Good

Alanis Morissette


That I would be good even if I did nothing
[1]That I would be good even if I got the thumbs down
[2]That I would be good if I got and stayed sick
That I would be good even if I gained ten pounds
[3]That I would be fine even if I went bankrupt
That I would be good if I lost my hair and my youth
hat I would be great if I was no longer queen
hat I would be grand if I was not all knowing
That I would be loved even when I numb myself
That I would be good even when I am overwhelmed
That I would be loved even when I was fuming
That I would be good even if I was clingy
That I would be good even if I lost sanity
That I would be good
