here come the sidewalk boss again
telling me how I cant cave in
that Im a study in black
need a pat on the back
I look up and smile
a picture of dissatisfaction
that he can only see as a junkie
though I might be straight as an arrow
hes busy shaking hands with my monkey
busy shaking hands with my monkey well I go in the car
straight to the bar
where my sweetie pours the beer
for the millions of fans ignoring the bands
hes in my ear
wants me to live in denial
says youve gotta settle for something
though it might not be really living
anything is better than nothing
anything is better than nothing
no actor action man gonna move in to take my place
Ill be pumping out the product
just a total waste.
look at your hands unoccupied
look at the lengths youll go to hide
youre under the veil
pretending to fail
gotta whole lot of empty time left to go
now youve gotta fill it with something
I know what you can do dont you know
anything is better than nothing.
no actor action man gonna move in to take my place
Ill be pumping out the product
just a total waste
Im here with my cup
afraid to look up
this is how I spend my time
lazying around, head hanging down
stuck inside my imagination
busy making something from nothing
pictures of hope and depression
anything is better than nothing
anything is better than nothing
anything is better than nothing
anything is better than nothing
