Just Being Good (Is not good enough) by Dada Veda - Video
PUBLISHED:  Sep 06, 2010
DESCRIPTION:
Here are the lyrics to a new song about social responsibility and social justice.

I know you follow the rules and are kind to one and all.
You're a model sort of guy and your're standing straight and tall.
You're so good to your kids and your puppy dogs too.
I've got nothing bad to say about all the things you do.

But who's gonna tame the beasts and speak out for the meek?
And Who's gonna tell the brutes their lying days are through?
That's why we're all crying now and times are getting rough
and just being good is not good enough.

You say it's not your battle that it's none of your affairs.
You've got better things to do as you hurry down the stairs.
But wait a minute mister you've really got it to see.
This is not the work for others, it's a job for you and me

For who's gonna tame the beasts and speak out for the meek?
And Who's gonna tell the brutes their lying days are through?
That's why we're all crying now and times are getting rough
and just being good is not good enough.

What can I say to move you, and wake you from your sleep?
Our ship lies in tatters as we plunge into the deep
Don't look for any other to save us from our plight.
There is no one but you and me on this dark and cloudy night.

And who's gonna tame the beasts and speak out for the meek?
And Who's gonna tell the brutes their lying days are through?
That's why we're all crying now and times are getting rough
and just being good is not good enough.
