Good Riddance

How ready are you
To die for an ideal
What's the connection,
Between a lie and what is real
Mother Superior
I've got an angel on my back
I'm one of the righteous
And I'm never going back
No, no, no
I'm never going back
Who's that shining forth-right man
About to die behind me
He's waiting for the portress to
Send me head over heels
Who's that black-heart four-star
General walking up the hill
To ask the liberals nicely
To help, finance his private war
And if I didn't trust that man
