                Bm7
I've got the dynamo of volition
With po-pole position
    F#m7                    Gmaj7
Automatic transmission with lo-ow emissions
      Bm7
I'm a brand new addition to the old edition
         F#m7             Gmaj7
With the love unconditional.
       Bm7
I'm a drama abolitionist
                         F#m7
Damn no opposition to my proposition
          Gmaj7
Half of a man, half magician
       Bm7
Half a politician holding the mic
Like ammunition
       F#m7                   Gmaj7
And my vision is as simple as light.
         Bm7
Ain't no reason we should be in a fight
No demolition
       F#m7             Gmaj7
Get to vote, get to say what you like
Procreation
     Bm7
Compositions already written by themselves
F#m7                         Gmaj7
Heck is for the people not believin' in gosh

Chorus:
      Bm7
Good Job
Get 'em up way high
      F#m7       Gmaj7
Gimme gimme that high five
     Bm7
Good time
Get 'em way down low
      F#m7        Gmaj7
Gimme gimme that low dough
     Bm7
Good God
Bring 'em back again
      F#m7       Gmaj7
Gimme gimme that high ten
           Bm7                       F#m7 Gmaj7
You're the best definition of good intentions.

Em7                 F#m7
I do not answer the call if
                     Gmaj7
I do not know who is calling
                              G/A
I guess the whole point of it all is
That we never know really
Em7                         F#m7
I'm tryin' to keep with the Joneses
                               Gmaj7
While waiting for guns and the roses
                         G/A
To finish what we all suppose is
                      Bm7
Gonna be the shit, so sue me.

Oh, fist like bumping and wrist lock
Twisting up a rizla
Kid Icarus on the transistor
Nintendo be giving me the blister
I bend over take it in the kisser
My best friends are hitting on my sister
Try to tell them that they still a wish-a
'Cause she already got herself a mister
And besides that's gross to wanna diss her
Dee-didee-dee-di-didn't I say, didn't I say

Chorus:
Good job, get 'em up way high
Gimme, gimme that high five
Good time, get 'em way down low
Gimme, gimme that low do
Good God, bring 'em back again
Gimme, gimme that high ten
You're the best definition of good versus evil
Oh oh

I do not keep up with statistics
I do not sleep without a mistress
I do not eat unless it's fixed with
Some kind of sweet like a licorice
My home is deep inside the mystics
I'm known to keep digging on existence
I'm holding in the heat like a fish stick
My phone it beeps because I missed it

I do not answer the call if
I do not know who is calling
I'm making no sense of it all
Say, can I get a witness?

I'm only a boy in a story
Just a hallucinatory
Tripping on nothing there is
Living in the wilderness
With a tiger spot on my back
Living life of a cat
I just wanna relax here
And write another rap tune
Driving off on your blind man's bike
You can say just what you like
Oh, nothing can stop you, oh

Chorus:
Good job, get 'em up way high
Gimme, gimme that high five
Good time, get 'em way down low
Gimme, gimme that low do
Good God, bring 'em back again
Gimme, gimme that high ten
You're the best, you're the best, you're the best
You're the best, you're the best, you're the best
You're the best

Good job, get 'em up way high
Gimme, gimme that high five
Good time, get 'em way down low
Gimme, gimme that low do
Good God, bring 'em back again
Gimme, gimme that high ten

You're the best definition of good intentions
You're the best definition of good intentions
You're the best definition of good intentions
You're the best around
