Jim: |
|
I wake up each day and wonder what for? |
|
It seems to me there must be something more |
|
Something more than stacks of dishes, and washing this old floor |
|
If I had my pick of wishes, I'd wish me out that door |
|
'Cause I'm hungry for adventure, and I'm fed up with this grind |
|
If I don't get some excitement soon, I'm gonna lose my mind |
|
I want a life that's filled with thrills, that's wild and free |
|
There's gotta be something better |
|
Something better |
|
There's gotta be something better than this for me |
|
I look around here and I want to cry |
|
Rizzo: |
|
(me too) |
|
Jim: |
|
I feel like the world is passing me by |
|
Gonzo: |
|
(it is) |
|
Jim: |
|
And I just can't help but wonder |
|
Am I doomed to wash and dry |
|
And is it a curse I'm under to do it 'til I die? |
|
Gonzo: |
|
(well, I hope not) |
|
Rizzo: |
|
(yeah) |
|
Jim: |
|
When I could be an explorer |
|
Gonzo: |
|
(sure you could!) |
|
Jim: |
|
Sailing off to distant lands |
|
Rizzo: |
|
(not so fast) |
|
Jim: |
|
Instead of spending every afternoon just getting dish pan hands |
|
My future looks like nowhere that I want to be |
|
There's gotta be something better |
|
Something better |
|
There's gotta be something better than this for me |
|
Gonzo: |
|
(Now, you're talking!) |
|
If it's weird and wild let's go and find it (ha ha ha ha!) |
|
The crazier, the better, is what I say |
|
Rizzo: |
|
(yeah, that's true) |
|
To tell the truth I really wouldn't mind it |
|
Gonzo: |
|
(Mind what?) |
|
Rizzo: |
|
If we found someplace with ten square meals a day! |
|
Jim: |
|
Let danger call my name |
|
Rizzo: |
|
If it does, I'm gonna hide... |
|
Jim: |
|
I'll put my courage to the test |
|
Gonzo: |
|
And I'll be by your side |
|
Rizzo: |
|
He'll be by your side! |
|
All: |
|
There's gotta be something better than this |
|
(something more than this) |
|
I know that there's so much out there to see |
|
(To see) |
|
And I know this life I'm living can't be my destiny |
|
(Destiny) |
|
There's gotta be something better |
|
Something better |
|
There's gotta be something better for me |
|
(and me) |
|
(wait a minute, what about me?) |
|
There's something better than this for you and me! |
