Everybody´s Better

Everybody´s Better

Mighty Mighty Bosstones
(album: A Jackknife To A Swan)

Everybody´s better than I am
I think everybody´s better than me
And everybody´s swell I guess
They´re doing well some more or less
Everybody´s better than I am I think
You know to be king you don´t need a castle
To row back to shore can sure be a hassle
Why you walk around with your head low down
Everybody´s acting like I don´t matter
Everybody´s into the act
Too many of them to avoid
It could be that I´m paranoid
I matter as a matter of fact
And you know to be king you don´t need a castle
To row back to shore can sure be a hassle

Why you walk around with your head low down
The true king rules without a crown
If your boat´s afloat after the typhoon
Row it safely back to the lagoon
And nevermind the green grass you won´t mow
Or what it is you have or don´t to show
Or what it is you can or can´t afford
The good are good without reward
You know to be king you don´t need a castle
To row back to shore can sure be a hassle
Why you walk around with your head low down
Everybody´s better than I am
I think everybody´s better than me
And everybody´s swell I guess
They´re doing well some more or less
Everybody´s better than I am I think
Everybody´s acting like I don´t matter
Everybody´s into the act
Too many of them to avoid
It could be that I´m paranoid
I matter as a matter of fact
And you know to be king you don´t need a castle
No no! No No! No no no no
To row back to shore can sure be a hassle
You know to be king you don´t need a castle
