Lyrics:

You know good, you know good
You know good and well it's true
They never do what you want 'em too
'Cause people ain't no good

Oh no, they're no good on weekends
When they come out to play
They're no good for bookends
'Cause you can't make 'em stay, hey

People ain't no good
People ain't no good
They never do what I think they should
No, people ain't no good

Yeah, people are just a waste
They're all over the place
Yeah, you see 'em everywhere ya go
And I don't like their face

And people don't like me either
Why, I sure don't know
But even a jerk like you could see
It's obviously so, so

People ain't no good
People ain't no good
They never do what I think they should
No, people ain't no good at all
Play it

They always get some smile
They always stand like this
They always tell you who is what
Well, what I say is this

People ain't no good, oh no no
People ain't no good
Oh, they never do what I think they should
No, people ain't no good

Sing it, children

(People ain't no good)
(People ain't no good)
(They never do what he thinks they should)
(So, people ain't no good)

(People ain't no good...)
