Better Than That
Once you recognize the truth, tell me what do you do
It's inside of me and it's inside of you
Addicted to the sickness, it's an actual fact
All I know is I hope that we're better than that
(All I hope is that we're better than that)
We try to lend a hand, help our fellow man
We cooperate enough to stay alive
But what is said and done, it's all about number one
And the devotion to the trinity of me, myself and I
Once you recognize the truth, tell me what do you do
It's inside of me and it's inside of you
Addicted to the sickness, it's an actual fact
All I know is I hope that we're better than that
Remember once this guy made my girl cry
So I went to get a hammer to break his knees
Nothing came of it, except just macho bullshit
Or expression of the symptoms of the naked ape's disease
And the nightmare keeps repeating
While the consciences are sleeping
Untroubled and unclean
This cool girl that I know, went and had a baby
An amazing leap of faith when I see them
She lets me hold the kid a while, watch the baby smile
Thought I'd outgrown hope, what I see there gives me reason
Once you recognize the truth, tell me what do you do
It's inside of me and it's inside of you
Addicted to the sickness, it's an actual fact
All I know is I hope that we're better than that
I know is I hope that we're better than that
Whoa, we're better than that
Whoa, we're better than that
All I know is I hope that we're better than that
It's inside of me and it's inside of you
Addicted to the sickness, it's an actual fact
All I know is I hope that we're better than that
(All I hope is that we're better than that)
We try to lend a hand, help our fellow man
We cooperate enough to stay alive
But what is said and done, it's all about number one
And the devotion to the trinity of me, myself and I
Once you recognize the truth, tell me what do you do
It's inside of me and it's inside of you
Addicted to the sickness, it's an actual fact
All I know is I hope that we're better than that
Remember once this guy made my girl cry
So I went to get a hammer to break his knees
Nothing came of it, except just macho bullshit
Or expression of the symptoms of the naked ape's disease
And the nightmare keeps repeating
While the consciences are sleeping
Untroubled and unclean
This cool girl that I know, went and had a baby
An amazing leap of faith when I see them
She lets me hold the kid a while, watch the baby smile
Thought I'd outgrown hope, what I see there gives me reason
Once you recognize the truth, tell me what do you do
It's inside of me and it's inside of you
Addicted to the sickness, it's an actual fact
All I know is I hope that we're better than that
I know is I hope that we're better than that
Whoa, we're better than that
Whoa, we're better than that
All I know is I hope that we're better than that
