Margo Guryan - I'd Like to See the Bad Guys Win Lyrics

I'D LIKE TO SEE THE BAD GUYS WIN

Words and Music by Margo Guryan

I'd like to see the bad guys win sometime
I'd like to see the bad guys win
They act so mean, and they try so hard
To get into the trouble they're always in

I'd like to see the bad guys have some fun
They're always getting pushed around
Wouldn't it be thrilling to see
Stories catching up with reality

I'd like to see the good guys giving in
And letting the bad guys win
Sometime
I'd like to see the bad guys win

I'd like to see the bad guy get the girl
The good guy's always such a bore
He's well-behaved, and he's so sincere
But she don't even get what he gives a horse

I'd like to see the bad guys get away
They're always getting shot or hung
Wouldn't it be thrilling to see
A happy ending ending unhappily

I'd like to tell the good guys `it's no sin'
To let the bad guys win
Sometime
I'd like to see the bad guys win
