What parents need to know

Parents need to know that like its name suggests, the single "Good Time" is about hanging out and having fun. With no profanity or references to substance use, sex, or violence, the tune is one of the cleaner party-focused pop choices. It does feature a few lines about irresponsible actions, like dropping a phone in a pool and sleeping all day, but overall it's a fine choice for tweens and teens.

Awesome!
I think it's a pretty good song.. there's no bad words or anything like that. Also, it's sung by two people who are kid friendly so that's good.

*scratches head*
Uh... can be catchy... *clears throat* Rebecca Black's "Friday"-like the lyrics in "Good Time"...? Okay, so maybe... yeah I think it's better.

...
I just watched the music video for this on YouTube. There's nothing inappropriate in the song or video, but like CSM said, it mentions "having a Prince song stuck in my head". Also, in the video, some girls wear short shirts and shorts, but keep in mind that this is a song about just driving around and having fun (and it's summer-themed), so of course they want to dress comfy.
