SINGER: Barenaked Ladies

SONG:Second Best

Everything's a lie
we're all gonna die
before we say goodbye
let's attack
I admit it's bleak
but i give it a week
until our friends the meek
give it back
Is it true?
well it's true enough i guess
join the chorus of the second best
second best
second best
What's left of you that's real?
a mutated ideal
with limited appeal, i suggest
if winning is an art
then it's drawn us apart
when you erased your heart and beat your chest
Is it you?
well it's you enough i guess
you're an angel in a see-through dress
is it true?
yes it's true enough i guess
sometimes it's better to be second best
second best
second best
Perhaps it's just as well
that i still look like hell
at least the world can tell us apart
Is it true?
yes it's true enough i guess
come join the chorus of the unimpressed
is it true?
yes it's true enough i guess
sometimes it's better to be second best
second best
second best
