Try Better Next Time - Placebo

At the core of the earth

It's too hot to breathe

There's nothing much to eat

And everybody leaves

There's a place in the forest

Where the animals dance

Carefree and joyous

Like nobody's watching

And nobody's watching

So they laugh and they dance

Around mahogany trees

Completely unawares

They're gonna end up as meat

And nobody's watching

Wake up

Wake up

Try better next time

Wake up

Wake up

Cry better next time

Wake up

Wake up

Try better next time

Wake up

Wake up

So, you know me

Understand me

Is that what you think?

You haven't met the monster

Who wakes up when I drink

I was born out of time

I'm not meant to be here

With the weight of the world

And the weight of a tear

Are exactly the same

Wake up

Wake up

Try better next time

Wake up

Wake up

Cry better next time

Wake up

Wake up

Try better next time

Wake up

Wake up

There's a spot in the ocean

And that's where we'll meet

Somewhere far away

Where fish can nibble at our feet

And we can grow fins

Go back in the water

Grow fins go back in the water

Grow fins go back in the water

Grow fins go back in the water

Wake up

Wake up

Try better next time

Wake up

Wake up

Cry better next time

Wake up

Wake up

Try better next time

Wake up

Wake up

It's a gas, it's a party

On this planet of flakes

Somebody take a picture

Before it's too late
