Something Better

He walks along singing his fairy song

Picking up magic that grows at his feet

She says the same her peculiar way

Dreaming good fortune on everyone's street

Say, hey, have you heard, blue whiskey's the rage

I'll send you a jug in the morning

It is absurd to live in a cage

You know there's got to be something better

As they go by, don't look with eagle's eyes

Smile on your jailers until they grow weak

Nothing can compare to something that's almost there

To tear up the madness that all of us seek

Say, hey, have you heard, blue whiskey's the rage

I'll send you a jug in the morning

It is absurd to live in a cage

You know there's got to be something better
