Everybody's Better
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, everbody's in on 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 never mind 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)
You know (Everybody's better than I am)
To be king you don't need a castle (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)
To row (Everybody's acting like I don't matter)
Back to shore can sure be a hassle (Everbody's in on the act)
Too many of them to avoid, it could be that I'm paranoid, I matter as a matter of fact
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
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, everbody's in on 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 never mind 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)
You know (Everybody's better than I am)
To be king you don't need a castle (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)
To row (Everybody's acting like I don't matter)
Back to shore can sure be a hassle (Everbody's in on the act)
Too many of them to avoid, it could be that I'm paranoid, I matter as a matter of fact
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
