The John Butler Trio

Better Than

All you want is

What you can't have

And if you just look around man

You see you got magic

So just sit back relax

Enjoy it while you still have it

Don't look back on life man and only see tragic

Because you could be better than that

Don't let it get the better of you

What could be better than now

Life's not about what's better than

You can be better than that

Don't let it get the better of you

What could be better than now

Life's not about what's better

All the time while you're looking away

There are things you can do man

There's things you can say

To the the ones you're with

With whom you're spending your today

Get your gaze off tomorrow

And let come what may

Because you could be better than that

Don't let it get the better of you

What could be better than now

Life's not about what's better than

You can be better than that

Don't let it get the better of you

What could be better than now

Life's not about what's better

All I know is sometimes things can be hard

But you should know by now

They come and they go

So why, oh why

Do I look to the other side

'Cause I know the grass is greener but

Just as hard to mow

Life's not about what's better than.

All you want is

What you can't have

And if you just look around man

You see you got magic

So just sit back relax

Enjoy it while you still have it

Don't look back on life man and only see tragic

Because

You could be better than that

Don't let it get the better of you

What could be better than now

Life's not about what's better than

You can be better than that

Don't let it get the better of you

What could be better than now

Life's not about what's better than
