So Good Right Now Lyrics
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, yeah
[Verse 1]
And I got this doom and gloom in my mind, yeah
And I got this doom and gloom, but I feel alright
I got love in my heart
So let's sneak in from the cheap seats, honey
And we'll drive until the engine just gives up
[Chorus]
Feelin' so good right now
Feelin' so good right now
So we crash and burn somehow
Feelin' so good right now, yeah
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh, yeah
[Verse 2]
And I know, I know I've made mistakes, yeah
And I know, I know, but at least they were mine to make
They were mine to make
And all of our wildest dreams, they just end up with a-you and me
So, let's drive until thе engine just gives out
Feelin' so good right now
Feelin' so good right now
So wе crash and burn somehow
Feelin' so good right now, yeah
[Bridge]
Driftin' from the start, I ripped myself apart
I'll be whatever you need me to be, you need me to be
I cut myself down, cut myself down
To whatever you need me to be, you need me to be
Driftin' from the start, I ripped myself apart
I'll be whatever you need me to be, you need me to be
I cut myself down, cut myself down
To whatever you need me
Oh, and all of our wildest dreams
They just end up with a-you and me
So, let's drive until the engine just gives out
[Chorus]
Feelin' so good right now
Feelin' so good right now
So we crash and burn somehow
Feelin' so good right now
Feelin' so good right now
Feelin' so good right now
So we crash and burn somehow
Feelin' so good right now (So good, so good, so good), yeah
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
[Outro]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh (And I know, I know I've made mistakes)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh (Yeah)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh (And I know, I know, but at least they were mine to make)
Oh (Yeah)
About
“So good right now” is the 6th track on “So much (for) Stardust. The song was unveiled by a package left in Hamburg, Germany the package contained a note with a seashell and the tracks title.
The track is very subversive in its themes, when only casually listening the song is very happy and peppy. But when analyzing the lyrics the song becomes much more of a depressing ballad than originally anticipated.

“So Good Right Now” is a song that I heard, or a chorus that I heard, of Patrick’s a while ago. This is a song, to me, that is distinctly something that we could make. It’s just got a happiness, a lightness to the melody and to the chorus, but the lyrics have a little bit of a bittersweet quality to them, which reminds me of some stuff off of “Take This To Your Grave”, or something like that.
It’s dialectical. The song’s happy, but then it’s got lyrics that don’t reflect that.
Patrick Stump told Kerrang!:
You know, I just go and follow things, and I’d written this Motown-y song – it was much more overt when I’d written it, and Neal [Avron, producer] was like, ‘That’s a bit too pastiche, that’s a bit too like you’re impersonating somebody. There’s a good song in here, but let’s strip away those things.’ It was interesting, this song. I think we spent a lot of time on the drums, getting them to fill in that space. Neal was like, ‘What if we take this song and strip it down to very, very few constituent parts, but we have those parts fill in a ton of space?’
