| Another jewel in your crown
|
| Another notch in your belt
|
| You’re the captain at the helm
|
| The statuette on your shelf
|
| Says you’re better than me
|
| Better than me
|
| With all the coal in the core
|
| All the water and the oil
|
| You can buy any girl in the world
|
| With the soil that you borrow
|
| And the moral you deny
|
| You can buy the eyes of the world
|
| With all the coal in the core
|
| All the water and the oil
|
| You can buy any girl in the world
|
| With the soil that you borrow
|
| And the moral you deny
|
| You can buy the eyes of the world
|
| Better than me (You're better than me)
|
| Better than me (You're better than me)
|
| Better than me (You're better than me)
|
| Like oil in the ocean
|
| I couldn’t keep to myself
|
| Your father was a merchant
|
| And I’m a salesman myself
|
| See what we have in common
|
| Is so easy to find
|
| We’re wound around each other
|
| Like wires and vines
|
| Wires and vines
|
| Build a shrine to fast goodbyes
|
| And we played Sweet Adeline
|
| Who should you apologize to?
|
| What is there to say?
|
| Build a shrine to fast goodbyes
|
| And we played Sweet Adeline
|
| There’s nothing more to apologize for
|
| What is there to say?
|
| With all the coal in the core
|
| All the water and the oil
|
| You can buy any girl in the world
|

| Better than me (You're better than me, you’re better than me, you’re better
|
| than me)
|
| Better than me (You're better than me, you’re better than me, you’re better
|
| than me)
|
| Better than me (You're better than me, you’re better than me, you’re better
|
| than me)
|
| Better than me (You're better than me, you’re better than me, you’re better
|
| than me) |
