[Verse 1]

Life is not a spark in space

An episode of Will and Grace

Controversial yet mundane

Debra's messing with your brain

Even Scientologists

Know there's more to all of this

You search the ruins for trap doors

Wonder what you're put here for


[Verse 2]

Simple as a hint of gas

Climbing nostrils as you pass

Making Harvard graduates

Feel childish when they laugh at it

Climb the rungs to kingdom come

Sour Patch to acid tongue

Are you opposed to having fun?

You clench the world between your buns


[Chorus 1]

You could do better

You could do better

You could be the greatest man in the world (woah!)

You could do better

You could do better

You could be the greatest man in the world (woah!)


[Verse 3]

Your life is always the post of something else

Where is the present in the way that you present yourself?

And it's disgusting how little that you try:

The existential equivalent of pink eye


[Verse 4]

Drink alone and watch TV

You're expecting harmonies

To tap your tune with silver spoons

The anthem of impending doom

Guiding Satan's steady hand

Forcing Beatles to disband

It's ego freaks and drama queens

The young at heart know what I mean


[Chorus 1]

You could do better

You could do better

You could be the greatest man in the world (woah!)

You could do better

You could do better

You could be the greatest man in the world (woah!)


[Chorus 2]

You could do better

Better than that

You're a fraud

Thank God you learned to keep your shirt on

You could do better

You could do better

You could be the greatest man in the world


[Bridge]

You'd burn so brightly

You'd burn so brightly in the dark

You'd burn so brightly

You'd burn so

You'd burn so


[Chorus 1]

You could do better

You could do better

You could be the greatest man in the world (woah!)

You could do better

You could do better

You could be the greatest man in the world (woah!)


[Chorus 2]

You could do better

You could do better

You could be the greatest man in the world (woah!)

We could do better

We could do better

We could be the greatest band in the world (woah!)
