Have been good and have got into bed (7)
I believe the answer is:
behaved
'have been good' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'have got into bed' is the wordplay.
'have got' becomes 'have' (synonyms).
'into' is an insertion indicator.
'have' inserted within 'bed' is 'BEHAVED'.
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for behaved that I've seen is " Conducted oneself in a certain manner".)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
