You Could Have It So Much Better

The last message you sent said I looked really down

That I ought to come over and talk about it

Well, I wasn't down

As I look at you now, it seems

That you're slapping my back as if it's alright

But it's not

But you're pushing me down

Oh yeah, you're pushing me down

Now there's some grinning goon on my TV screen

Telling us all that it's alright because

She wears this and he said that

And if you get some of these, it'll all be alright

Yeah, if you get some of these, it'll all be alright, yeah

Well, I refuse to be a cynical goon

Passing the masses an easy answer

'Cause it won't be alright

Oh no, it won't be alright

Alright

Well, I'm just a voice in your earpiece

Telling you no, it's not alright

You know you could have it so much better

Oh, you could have it so much better

If you tried, if you tried

If you tried, if you tried, woo

So get up on your own

If you got up on your own

Get up on your own

If you got up on your own

Get up on your own

So, come on, up on your own

Get up on your own

Said, get up on your own, yeah
