Better Place |
| Yesterday we lost a life |
| And we say, «what, another one?» |
| No one cares, so why should I |
| So we go right on having fun |
| Yet who knows what tomorrow brings, yeah |
| Take a look at what the future holds |
| Broken lives and shattered dreams |
| More to come I’m being told |
| We’re living in such a mean world |
| Glad I’m headed for a better place |
| Come on, why not meet me there |
| To miss all this would be a waste |
| We’re living in such a mean world |
| Glad I’m headed for a better place |
| Oh, yeah, headed for a better place |
| We talk about a better world |
| Then they prove that talk is cheap |
| Sending aid to outer space |
| While our homeless walk the streets |
| Their calling right what’s really wrong |
| (That's what we do) |
| Calling love what isn’t love |
| Headed straight for no return, yeah |
| Only hope is from above |
| We’re living in such a mean world |
| I’m headed for a better place, yes, I am |
| So come on, why not meet me there |
| To miss all this would be a waste |
| We’re living in such a mean world, yes, we are |
| Glad I’m headed for a better place |
| Said, yes, I am, yes, I am |
| I’m headed for a better place, yeah |
| Oh, yeah, yeah |
| Headed for a better place |
| (Better accommodations) |
| Yes, we are |
| A better place |
| (No more racial tension) |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, a better place |
| (Previous song I mentioned) |
| I said a better place |
| (Heaven is what I live for) |
| That’s right, a better place |
| Don’t you know I’m going, y’all |
| Hey, I said a better place |
| Look, wait |
| Wait, one more thing, before I go |
| What, BeBe? |
| You’ve been invited to a better place |
| A better place |
| Yeah, yeah |
| I’m going, yeah |
| It’s a B-E-T-T-E-R P-L-A-C-E… |
