Is a good man real?

Caught this amazing performance by the wonderful Rachael & Vilray on the Late Show last night. Thought you might enjoy it.

 

Is A Good Man Real?

I’ve never known one
What do they do?
We’ve always heard the legends
But can they be true?

My cousin’s best friend’s boyfriend
Once nearly cooked a meal
So is a good man real?

Does he try to remember
What his old lady said?
When he sleeps in on Tuesdays
Does he straighten the bed?
Once he’s had three martinis
He’ll let you take the wheel
Oh is a good man real?

I’ve never seen a narwhal
The unicorn of the sea
But if god made whales
And put horns on the males
Maybe he’d put a heart in a guy for me

He don’t need money
[spoken] "I said good not perfect"
I’ll settle for honey
And a quarterly date

So if you see this treasure
Please let him know how I feel
I hope a good man’s real

I’ve never seen a narwhal
The unicorn of the sea
But if god made whales
And put horns on the males
Maybe he’d put a heart in a guy for me

He don’t need money
I’ll settle for funny
So if you see this sucker
Please let him know how I feel
I hope a good man’s real

I really wonder
Is a good man real?
