"The Goonies 'R' Good Enough" is a song by American singer Cyndi Lauper, released on May 6, 1985, from the soundtrack album The Goonies: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (1985), released in support of the 1985 film of the same name. Written by Lauper, Stephen Broughton Lunt, and Arthur Stead, it was initially titled simply as "Good Enough"; the track was re-titled to "The Goonies 'R' Good Enough" by Warner Brothers for marketing purposes. Lauper admitted in an interview that she hated the song.[3]

The track became a decent chart success albeit less successful than the singles from her debut studio album She's So Unusual (1983). It peaked at number 10 on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming her fifth top-ten single. Internationally, the track peaked within the top-ten in Australia and Canada. It was, for the longest time, not available on any of Lauper's compilations and was excluded from her 1994 greatest hits collection Twelve Deadly Cyns...and Then Some. The track was finally included on one with the release of The Essential Cyndi Lauper in 2003.[3]
