Skidoo/Goodnight Mr. Banks

Harry Nilsson

[Intro]
There’s sun power, gun power
Atomic power, fun power
Power power, flower power
Go power and low power
And if power’s all they really understand
We take the power of the flour
And the power of the dough
We put them both together
And we love them together!
Mmm, charge!

[Chorus]
Skidoo, skidoo
The only thing that matters is with who you do
Skidoo, skidoo
The only thing that matters is with who
Skidoo, I do
I do believe it really is the thing to do
Skidoo, skidoo
And the world can be a better place for you

[Verse 1]
Well you gotta be good
And you gotta be kind
But there’s a lotta people
Think they gotta draw the line
They separate the good, the bad
The wrong from right
They forget about the colorless
Between the black and white
The groovy little in-between

[Chorus]
Skidoo, skidoo
The only thing that matters is with who you do
Skidoo, skidoo
The only thing that matters is with who

[Chorus]
Skidoo, I doo-de-ly-ooh-do
I do believe it really is the thing to do
Skidoo, skidoo
Between the one and three, there is a two

[Verse 2]
Look around and if you open your eyes
You may begin to think
You shouldn’t criticize
The way another person
Wants to wear his hair
For in the overall analysis
The only thing that counts
Is the magic and the love you share

[Chorus]
Skidoo, skidoo
The only thing that matters is with who you do
Skidoo, skidoo
The only thing that matters is with who
Skidoo, I do
I do believe it really is the thing to do
Skidoo, skidoo
And the world can be a better place for you

[Verse 3]
Time’s moving fast
And there’s a lot to see
So don’t you trap yourself inside a boat
That’s floatin’ on the sea
There’s a better way of living
If you take the time to try
To live and love and take a breath
And watch the scenery
As the color slowly changes
From fourteen to twenty-three

[Chorus/Outro]
Skidoo, skidoo
The only thing that matters is with who you do
Skidoo, skidoo
The only thing that matters is with who
Skidoo, I do-de-ly-ooh-do
Do-de-ly-ooh believe it really is the thing to do
Skidoo, skidoo
And the world can be a better place for you
Skidoo, bop-mmm...
