When Things Get Better Lyrics

When things get better gonna buy a motorcycle

Drive the 101 all the way to Olympia and buy an old RV

Head on up to Anchorage out to Jewel Lake catch some trout

Hop on a plane make my way over to Montreal hear some jazz

Find a French girl who can occupy my time

Catch a ship to Lisbon walking through Alfama all summer

When things get better I'm a buy a car that runs

Might hang in some downtown where the parks

Still have some grass

Talk to some old man playing chess for eating money

Try to learn some Spanish from the Bride hunting Aunties

Hoping more than what they want

When things get better I won't have to live in fear

Won't miss the opportunities that never came to me

And I won't have to prove nothing

To the ones who thought I'd fail kept me down

At every opportunity I'll just be golden

When things get better

Everyone will live in peace

We'll all share everything

No one will have control

We'll be equal safe and happy

In our perfect little homes

And our perfect little heaven

In our perfect loving world

And all the dolphins will be taxis

We can fly to work on Monday

The sky's a television

All the programming is free

And every day is Christmas

And every Halloween

Santa jumps out of great pumpkins

Scares the whole damn world

When things get better

My body will be ashes

This old world by explanation

Won't be anymore
