Be Good Until Then- Butch Walker

Always know the road you're riding on.
Always know the words to your babys song.
Try to make the most of Friday nights when they come.
Maybe turn a stranger to a friend.
Never break a heart that's on the mend.
Never let the romance ever end like I've done.
Never judge a color of a skin.
Never judge a person by their kin.
Never follow leaders that begin behind some wall.
Always help your mom across the street.
Always wash your hands when you wanna eat,
but always keep them dirty enough to see where you came from.

And it's okay to cry if you feel it coming on,
it'll let you know you're human in the end.
All these things will mean more when I'm gone,
just be good until then.

Try to see the best inside the bad
no matter how many drinks you had.
Never make a promise you'll regret come sunrise.
Try to rarely ever oversleep.
Always keep your ego at your feet.
Maybe try to practice what you preach once in a while.

It's okay to cry if you feel it coming on,
it'll let you know you're human in the end.
All these things will mean more when I'm gone,
just be good until then.

Everybody loves a hero, but not so much when they fall short
so try to keep your cape on underneath.
You don't have to try so hard to be the best,
Just know you are
and that's all that'll matter to me.

And it's okay to cry if you feel it coming on,
it'll let you know you're human in the end.
All these things will mean more when I'm gone,
just be good until then.
