Artist/Band: Alice Cooper
Lyrics for Song: I Just Wanna Be Good
Lyrics for Album: Dragon Town [2001]



I'm in control

I got a bulletproof soul

And I'm full of self-esteem

I invented myself with no one's help

I'm a prototype supreme

I sit on my private throne

And run my lifestyle all alone

Me, myself and I agree

We don't need nobobdy else



I never learned to bow, bend or crawl

To any known authority

I really want to build my statue tall

That's all



I'm just trying to be God

I only wanna be God

I just wanna be God

Why can't I be God?



I got no time to take advice

I want to gamble with my eternity

With loaded dice

I don't need a preacher in my face

When I'm the omnipresent ruler of the human race

Ain't gonna

Spend my life being no one's fool

I was born to rock and I was born to rule

But if I'm wrong on judgement day

I'm royally screwed with hell to pay



I never learned to bow, bend or crawl

To any known authority

I really want to build my statue tall

That's all



I'm just trying to be God

I only wanna be God

I just wanna be God

Why can't I be God?



I'm just trying to be God

I only wanna be God

I just wanna be God

Why can't I be God?



I'm just trying to be God

I only wanna be God

I just wanna be God

Why can't I be God?


About I Just Wanna Be Good

"I Just Wanna Be Good" is a track from Alice Cooper's 2001 album *Dragon Town*, marking a significant shift in his musical direction toward a more polished, rock-oriented sound. While Cooper is globally renowned for his theatrical horror rock style and shock persona, this recording reflects a period where he collaborated with producer Rick Rubin to explore a grittier, blues-infused aesthetic. The song features Cooper's signature vocal delivery, blending his characteristic growl with a raw, unfiltered intensity that contrasts with the cleaner production of the album. It stands as a testament to his ability to adapt his artistry across different eras, moving beyond the glam metal and hard rock of his earlier career into a more mature, roots-rock territory. The track remains a notable example of his discography's evolution, showcasing his commitment to exploring diverse musical textures while maintaining his unique vocal identity.
