Lyrics:
It’s half past one
It’s midday sun
It’s lets just getaway
It’s midweek holiday
It’s a case of wine, name your place and time
It’s not security, it’s not stability
I don’t have money, no place, no plan
CHORUS
But its better than a smooth ride
Better than waiting for low tide
Better than watching from ringside
Better than taking the fall.
Better than missing every sunrise,
Trying not to capsize
Better than a compromise,
Better than nothing at all.
I’m easy, I’m slow
I can be lazy, I know
But I’m right where I wanna be
So spare me the third degree
I’m the ripple in your drink
I’m the smile that’s out of sync
I’m the rinbow at your funeral, I speak in roman numerals
I’m almost inconsumable, my parachute’s on fire
But its better than a smooth ride
Better than waiting for low tide
Better than watching from ringside
Better than taking the fall.
Better than missing every sunrise,
Trying not to capsize
Better than a compromise,
Better than nothing at all.
But you know, like I know
I’m the bottom of the pyramid, I’m socially inhibited.
Headstrong, but it’s a heavy load.
When the wolves are at the door.
But its better than a smooth ride
Better than waiting for low tide
Better than watching from ringside
Better than taking the fall.
Better than missing every sunrise,
Trying not to capsize
Better than a compromise,
Better than nothing at all.
But its better than a smooth ride
Better than waiting for low tide
Better than watching from ringside
Better than taking the fall.
Better than missing every sunrise,
Trying not to capsize
Better than a compromise,
Better than nothing at all.
