BARENAKED LADIES - Second Best lyrics
rate meEverything's a lie.
We're all gonna die.
But before say goodbye, let's attack.
I admit it's bleak.
But I give it a week.
Before our friends the meek give it back.
Is it true?
Well its true enough, I guess.
Join the chorus of the
Second best.
(Second best)
Second best. (x3)
(Second best)
What's left of you that's real?
A mutated ideal
With limited appeal, I suggest.
If hitting is an art,
Then it's drawn us apart
When you erased your heart and beat your chest.
Is it you?
Well it's you enough I guess.
You're an angel in a
See-through dress.
Is it true?
Yes, it's true enough I guess.
(Second best)
Second best. (x4)
(Second)
Perhaps it's just as well
That I still look like hell.
At least the world can tell us apart.
Is it true?
Yes, it's true enough, I guess.
Come, join the chorus of the
Unimpressed.
Is it true?
Yes, it's true enough, I guess.
Sometimes it's better to be
Second best.
(Second best)
Second best. (x8)
