Better Than You

[Verse 1]
Wow, look at that hair
Are you even aware
That you look scared
Under there?
What a square
You're like a teenage nightmare
You sulk and you swear, its so unfair
Well golly-gee-whiz
You say that so often
I wonder what your basis
Of comparison is

[Chorus]
Everybody thinks you think
I think that I'm better than you
When you know it might be true
That I'm more clever than you
Wasting all your time
Minding what is mine
Thinking that I'm, thinking that
I'm smarter than you
When the simple truth
Is that I work harder than you

[Post-Chorus]
When you see walls, I see doors
Opportunity knocks
It's a sound you ignore
Well, you won't even try
I've been kicked to the floor
A million times
And I got up and was rеady for more

[Verse 2]
Now what do I see?
The simpering child in front of mе
It's got a green-eyed beast called jealousy
It's plain to see
Even in your own nightmare
I hate to obsess but, you're just a mess
And you look distressed
But I digress, you must confess
I'm not the cause of your lack of success

[Chorus]
Everybody thinks you think
I think that I'm better than you
When you know it might be true
That I'm more clever than you
Wasting all your time
Minding what is mine
Thinking that I'm, thinking that
I'm smarter than you
When the simple truth
Is that I work harder than you

[Verse 3]
Everybody knows that
Planting the seeds
The only way that it grows
Keep it to your own
And you know you got nothing to sew
A forest only grows
When a billion ideas
Until the blizzard is gone
So plant one of your own (Let it go)
Use your rage, leave the cage
Hit the stage
And get on with the show!

[Chorus]
Now everybody thinks you think
I think that I'm better than you
When you know it might be true
That I'm more clever than you
Wasting all your time
Minding what is mine
Thinking that I'm, thinking that
I'm smarter than you
When you know it's simply true that
I work harder than you
I work harder than you
I work harder than you
Which is why
I'm doing better than you
