Better

You showed up late to the birthday party

An unmistakable look on your face

The record scratch like a sitcom moment

Some candle wax on my piece of cake

There is a joke and I never get it

there is a wall that their building up

a human pyramid to the heavens

Not sure that anyone sees the top

It’s not a doll it’s an action figure

they say the line when you pull the string

reanimated the corpse and quoted

Some adaptation of Stephen king

This whole charade’s got me going loco

everyone’s outfits are fitting just right

Hop on the high horse and set out riding

I’ll drink a couple and run some red lights

Better than you

Better than me

Better believe

It’s better that we are seen

And the light is on us

only for a time

Better than you

Better than me

Better believe

It’s better that we are seen

And the light is on us

only for a time

For a time

For a time
