"Do Better" lyrics - SAY ANYTHING

SAY ANYTHING
"Do Better"
(Say Anything / Max Bemis)

Life is not a spark in space
An episode of Will and Grace
Controversial yet mundane
Debra's messing with your brain
Even Scientologists
Know there's more to all of this
You search the ruins for trap doors
Wonder what you're put here for

Simple as a hint of gas
Climbing nostrils as you pass
Making Harvard graduates
Feel childish when they laugh at it
Climb the rungs to kingdom come
Sour Patch to acid tongue
Are you opposed to having fun?
You clench the world between your buns

[Chorus:]
You could do better
You could do better
You could be the greatest man in the world (woah!)
You could do better
You could do better
You could be the greatest man in the world (woah!)

Your life is always the post of something else
Where is the present in the way that you present yourself?
And it's disgusting how little that you try:
The existential equivalent of pink eye

Drink alone and watch TV
You're expecting harmonies
To tap your tune with silver spoons
The anthem of impending doom
Guiding Satan's steady hand
Forcing Beatles to disband
It's ego freaks and drama queens
The young at heart know what I mean

[Chorus]

[Chorus 2:]
You could do better
Better than that
You're a fraud
Thank God you learned to keep your shirt on
You could do better
You could do better
You could be the greatest man in the world

[Bridge:]
You'd burn so brightly
You'd burn so brightly in the dark
You'd burn so brightly
You'd burn so
You'd burn so

[Chorus]

[Chorus 2]

You could do better
You could do better
You could be the greatest man in the world (woah!)
We could do better
We could do better
We could be the greatest band in the world (woah!)
