곡 소개
정신과 진료실 의자에 앉은 사람이 의사에게 따지듯 던지는 물음에서 곡이 출발합니다. 나는 올 한 해 그렇게 착하게 살았는데, 대체 카르마는 어디 있느냐는 것입니다.
뿌린 대로 거둔다는 인과응보를 믿고 친절하고 성실하게 굴었는데도 삶은 나아지기는커녕 점점 더 버거워집니다. 'I've been so good, where the hell is the karma?'라는 후렴은 선행에 마땅한 보상이 돌아오지 않는 허탈함을 반복해 두드립니다.
벌스에서 화자는 자신이 정상인지, 다른 환자보다 더 미친 건 아닌지 의사에게 되묻고, 발목을 삐고 팔꿈치가 부러진 와중에도 '그럼 투어 티켓은 더 팔리겠네'라며 냉소합니다. 성공했는데도 채워지지 않는 공허, 우주가 나에게만 작동을 멈춘 것 같은 감각을 담담하게 늘어놓습니다.
AJR는 뉴욕 출신 삼형제 애덤·잭·라이언 멧이 거실에서 직접 곡을 만들고 프로듀싱하는 밴드로, 이 곡은 3집 'Neotheater'에 실렸습니다. 앞선 앨범의 성공 뒤에도 행복이 찾아오지 않아 좌절하던 잭 멧이 후렴을 먼저 썼다고 알려져 있으며, 앨범을 대표하는 인기 트랙으로 스트리밍에서 꾸준히 재생되고 있습니다.

I've been so good, I've been helpful and friendly I've been so good, why am I feeling empty? I've been so good, I've been so good this year I've been so good, but it's still getting harder I've been so good, where the hell is the karma? I've been so good, I've been so good this year Why Are you asking me why? My days and nights are filled with disappointment Fine Oh no, everything's fine I'm not sure why I booked today's appointment I've been so good, I've been helpful and friendly I've been so good, why am I feeling empty? I've been so good, I've been so good this year And I've been so good, but it's still getting harder I've been so good, where the hell is the karma? I've been so good, I've been so good this year What? Am I normal or not? Am I crazier than other patients? Right I've done everything right So where's the karma, doc? I've lost my patience 'Cause I've been so good, I've been working my ass off I've been so good, still, I'm lonely and stressed out I've been so good, I've been so good this year And I've been so good, but it's still getting harder I've been so good, where the hell is the karma? I've been so good, I've been so good this year I've been so good this year I've been so good this year Time I know we're out of time But what if sad thoughts come and I can't stop it? Bye I don't wanna say bye If only I could keep you in my pocket To give me some diagnoses of why I'm so hollow Please, give me instructions, I promise I'll follow I tripped on my ankle and fractured my elbow But doesn't that mean that the tour's gonna sell though? I try to explain the good faith that's been wasted But after an hour, it sounds like complaining Wait, don't go away, can I lie here forever? You say that I'm better, why don't I feel better? The universe works in mysterious ways But I'm starting to think it ain't working for me Doctor, should I be good, should I be good this year?
