Good News Randy Newman

Once upon a time there was a vulture and a hog
Livin' in a house upon a hill
Had this little boy who lived with them
And they worked him like a dog
With any luck, they'd have him up there still
'Long came a magic man with a magic bag
Full of nasty little green things in a funky old rag
He said, "Boy you may not know it but this here's salvation you see."
Son, you're going down in history

Good news is blowin' in your window
Good news is knockin' on your door
Good news is comin' round the corner
Good news is rollin' 'round your floor

Where can all my troubles be?
Must be good news chasin' me
Good enough to set everybody free
Good news, good news, good news
(Good news)

There were bugs in the garden
Didn't have a clue
That everyday their life was on the line
They wanted to get outta there
But they didn't know what to do
Their little brains is workin' overtime
That all changed one sunny day
That little boy dropped by to say
If we all work together, we make out okay
Good news, good news, good news
