Paroles de Better Than Anything

Better than cream cheese and bagels Better than honey on bread Better than champagne and pretzels Better than breakfast in bed Better than chili rellenos Better than chocolate éclairs Better than hothouse tomatoes Better than fresh Bartlett pears Better than dining a la carte Or simply gastronomic art Better than anything except being in love Better than making a million Better than being a queen Better than oil wells and gold mines Better than pastures of green Better than finding a horseshoe Better than losing your head Better than anything ever thought of Better than anything ever said Better than singing right out loud Or being spotted in a crowd Better than anything except being in love It's better than elephants, elephants dancing It's better than clowns on parade Better than peanuts and popcorn Better than pink lemonade Better than rides on the midway Better than seals blowing horns Better than men shot through cannons Better than fresh ears of corn Better than balancing on a wire Or watching tigers jump through fire Better than anything except being in love Better than driving around the park Or watching fireflies after dark Better than anything except being in love
