Next Best Thing Songtext
von Clarence Clarity

(Be the best)

You had to go get stuck in my head (and be the best)
Had to choke on unholiness (to be the best)
Had to lie to get me undressed (′cause you're the best)
Stop thinking, let′s start making a mess (and be the best)

Won't let death catch up with me, no
Won't let death catch up with me

You′d rather be the next thing, I′ll be the best
You'd rather be the next thing, I′ll be the best
'Cause it′s hard to be the best
I'll be the best, you do the rest
You gon′ do the next thing, I'll be the best

Exhausted by my unhappiness (to be the best)
Have to wear my human suit to impress ('cause I′m the best)
Now where were you since the last breakup?
′Cause it's still you when the dark takes us, oh


Won′t let death catch up with me, no (but it's getting harder, harder)
Won′t let death catch up with me, no (but it's getting harder, harder)

You′d rather be the next thing, I'll be the best
You'd rather be the next thing, I′ll be the best
′Cause it's hard to be the best
I′ll be the best, you can do the rest
You gon' do the next thing, I′ll be the best
If I can't be the best thing, I′ll be dead (woo)

You'd rather be the next thing, I'll be the best (won′t let death catch up with me)
You′d rather be the next thing, I'll be the best (won′t let death catch up with me)
I guess it's hard to be the best
I′ll be the best, you can do the rest
You gon' do the next thing, I′ll be the best

You'd rather be the next thing, I'll be the best (be the best)
You′d rather be the next thing, I′ll be the best (be the best)
I guess it's hard to be the best
I′ll be the best, you can do the rest
If I can't be the best thing, I′ll be de-
