I walked right into it

Glass and rocks look the same in the dark of night

It wasn’t what you wanted

It was something nonetheless

I’d rather be the second worst than be the second best

I got first in line but still I missed my Greyhound bus

It pulled up in a different spot every time

So all I’ve got here is my luck

When everything is gone I’ll take whatever’s left

I’d rather be the second worst than be the second best

The price list says it’s priceless

So one one’s gonna get just what they want

And I’ll just keep on making coffee until I make 100 bucks

It wasn’t what you wanted

It was something nonetheless

I’d rather be the second worst than be the second best

And when everything is gone

I’ll take whatever’s left I’d rather be the second worst than be the second best
