SEAN & GERRY are a rock band from Vermont with an eclectic style. Their love for ALL musical genres is apparent in their music as they infuse their "Rock" songs with bits of Jazz, Country, Folk, Punk, and many others to create their distinct sound. The next thing you will notice is their wacky sense of humor, as many of their songs (but not all of them) contain fragments of their warped and twisted view of the world.

Lyrics
Good Thing (The Central Park Paradox) Words & Music by: Gerald Metivier Bah bah bup bah da dah Bah bup bah da dah Bah bup bah da dat da dat da da da He looks over across his shoulder As he makes his way to Central Park The same old bench with today's newspaper And if he has to he'll wait there until dark And here comes Mrs. Johnson on her shiny red machine Speedy little motor cart She likes to save on gasoline She stops to feed the pigeons And she flashes him a smile His heart goes all a flutter And now Mr. Brown's in Heaven for a while Bah bah bup bah da dah Bah bup bah da dah Bah bup bah da dat da dat da da dah For forty-seven years he's been in love with her But he never found the nerve Every day he starts to approach her He gets so close but he never says a word Oh how I'd love to buy you a diamond ring I'd love the chance to make your lonely heart sing But if I lose you then I lose everything I'll wait right here in the wings And why ruin a good thing Bah ba bup ba da dah Bah bup ba da dah Bah bup ba da dat da dat da da da She looks over the dress they told her Reminded them of young Eva Gabor She ties a ribbon in her hair Kisses her cat as she's walking out the door Cruising through the park and there she sees old Mr. Brown He sits eating his crispy creme He doesn't know his paper's upside down She sees him peeking as she flashes him a smile Her heart goes all a flutter And it feels like she's in Heaven for a while Bah ba bup ba da dah Bah bup ba da dah Bah bup ba da dat da dat da da da As far back as she remembers She's been captivated by the boy As they grew older she grew to love him But never told how he fills her heart with joy And so you got me dangling by a string I'd love the chance to make your lonely heart sing But if I lose you then I lose everything I'll wait right here in the wings And why ruin a good thing Bah ba bup ba da dah Bah bup ba da dah Bah bup ba da dat da dat da da da He looks over, over and over Then he throws the paper to the ground The news it tears his heart to pieces Church bells playing such a dreadful sound And where is Mrs. Johnson Seems she's nowhere to be seen We miss her little motor cart The one that saves on gasoline Darkness falls upon the park She's nowhere to be found Lonely pigeons wait for her Too bad she won't be coming back around Bah ba bup ba da dah Bah bup ba da dah Bah bup ba da dat da dat da da da Oh how I'd love to buy you a diamond ring I'd love the chance to make your lonely heart sing But if I lose you then I lose everything I'll wait right here in the wings And why ruin a good thing Why ruin a good thing
