Better Than This

歌詞

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
