Good Guys Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's not the cowboys that are missing anymore
That problem was already old in '94
Don't be offended, this might seem a little wrong
Where have all the gay guys gone?
[Verse 2]
And to the romance when I was 14 years old
And to my heroes that were dressed up in gold
Only hoping one day I could be so bold
Where have all the gay guys gone?
[Pre-Chorus]
If we are all in the gutter, it doesn't change who we are
Cause some of us in the gutter are looking up at the stars
If we are all in the gutter, it doesn't change who we are
Cause some of us in the gutter are looking up at the stars
[Chorus]
So tell me
Where have all the good guys, where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys gone?
Where have all the good guys, where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys gone?
[Verse 3]
Thank you Rufus, thank you Auden and James Dean
Thank you Emerson and Bowie for my dreams
Wilfred Owen, Kinsey, Whitman and Rimbaud
Thank you Warhol, thank you patience, thank you Porter and Cocteau
[Pre-Chorus]
If we are all in the gutter, it doesn't change who we are
Cause some of us in the gutter are looking up at the stars
If we are all in the gutter, it doesn't change who we are
Cause some of us in the gutter are looking up at the stars
[Chorus]
So tell me
Where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys gone?
Where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys gone?
[Pre-Chorus]
If we are all in the gutter, it doesn't change who we are
Cause some of us in the gutter are looking up at the stars
If we are all in the gutter, it doesn't change who we are
Cause some of us in the gutter are looking up at the stars
[Chorus]
So tell me
Where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys gone?
Where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys
Where have all the good guys gone?
[Outro]
It's not the cowboys that are missing anymore
That problem was already old in '94
Don't be offended, this might seem a little wrong
Where have all the good guys gone?

“I found myself in very big business—commercial sessions in big studios my first week of writing for the album. I looked around and said, ‘My god, you guys basically write most of the pop music in the world.’
And they were all eating takeout, two of them had just been to the gym, and I looked at the...
