Better Man
My baby's got me doing the hooverin'
Guess she forgot I don't even live here
Don't she know I'm a rockstar equivalent of Kerouac?
Kind of like a disco Shakespeare
Need to gear up for the show tonight
Debut at Lowlife Hideaway, I'm gonna be late
How dare she say I'm not necessarily a genius
Well, I guess I must've been stupid to have fallen for you, babe
To have fallen for you
Guess that must be what they call it fallen for, babe
To have fallen for you
When I'm with you, I feel like a satellite
Wrapped around you like a gravitational fool
Oh, your love is like an arrow aimed right at the heart of my failings
Though I hate to be broken down
I know that you'll build me right back up again
As something like a better man
Be a better man
Moist eyes, compromise, Saturday night
When I catch your eye, I feel like I'm dreamin'
No, I do not exhibit Narcissus' qualities
I only said, "I'm like Jesus
When I'm pulling these ornate shapes at Hermes' place"
Honey, don't it feel so great when you're watching me, babe?
When I'm dancing for you?
I feel god-like when you're worshipping me, babe
When I'm dancing for you
Please don't belittle me in front of my band
Like the way only you can
Oh, your love is like an arrow aimed right at my heart
It's a deft hand that glues it all together
When the other one pulls it apart
But understand, I'll never be a better man
Be a better man
Could I ever be a better man? Oh-oh, oh
Be a better man
Guess she forgot I don't even live here
Don't she know I'm a rockstar equivalent of Kerouac?
Kind of like a disco Shakespeare
Need to gear up for the show tonight
Debut at Lowlife Hideaway, I'm gonna be late
How dare she say I'm not necessarily a genius
Well, I guess I must've been stupid to have fallen for you, babe
To have fallen for you
Guess that must be what they call it fallen for, babe
To have fallen for you
When I'm with you, I feel like a satellite
Wrapped around you like a gravitational fool
Oh, your love is like an arrow aimed right at the heart of my failings
Though I hate to be broken down
I know that you'll build me right back up again
As something like a better man
Be a better man
Moist eyes, compromise, Saturday night
When I catch your eye, I feel like I'm dreamin'
No, I do not exhibit Narcissus' qualities
I only said, "I'm like Jesus
When I'm pulling these ornate shapes at Hermes' place"
Honey, don't it feel so great when you're watching me, babe?
When I'm dancing for you?
I feel god-like when you're worshipping me, babe
When I'm dancing for you
Please don't belittle me in front of my band
Like the way only you can
Oh, your love is like an arrow aimed right at my heart
It's a deft hand that glues it all together
When the other one pulls it apart
But understand, I'll never be a better man
Be a better man
Could I ever be a better man? Oh-oh, oh
Be a better man
