Better Than This |
| Every man needs to get a little sleep |
| We all need sanctuary from the trouble on the street |
| Working hard and making money |
| But I’d rather be dreaming underneath a shady tree |
| And it’s 6:00 in the morning, I’ve been up all night |
| And I’m tossing and I’m turning and I’m fearing |
| Daylight |
| I’m so spun out, but I think I know what we could do |
| I’m exploding with ideas but I can’t call you |
| Oh lord, I hear people in the trees |
| I’m going on a mission, unlock your ten-speed |
| I hear this place is hot, swarming with police |
| And there’s a man on the corner with this camera on me |
| And I’d do anything to get a little rest |
| I think a nightmare would be better than this |
| I think a nightmare would be better than this |
| There’s a house they say is haunted up the street |
| The last family that moved in evacuated in a week |
| That voodoo lady always got to me |
| And I’m searching for her spirit desperate for company |
| 'Cause it’s 6:00 in the morning, I’ve been up all night |
| Can’t stop, the wheels are turning, fearing God’s |
| Morning light |
| I’m so spun out, but I think I know what we could do |
| I’m exploding with ideas but I can’t call you |
| Oh Lord, I hear people in the trees |
| I’ve got to take the world on a mission with me |
| I had a close brush with voyeur destiny |
| And then I hope that you’re looking and can see right |
| Through me |
| Can’t you see? |
| I’d do anything to get a little rest |
| I think a nightmare would be better than this |
| I think a nightmare would be better than this |
| Lord, can it get be better than this? |
| Can’t keep living like this |
| Better than this |
| Oh, I feel so shallow, just like a puddle |
| I think a nightmare would be better than this |
