I been gettin’ lonely, too much these days.
I been gettin’ lonely, I guess I better get away.
But where can I go that’s real? Life’s a stage on a ferris wheel.
And the actors are all fighting just to see who gets the lead in the play.

Oh, no, no.
I gotta’ find me a better day.

Talk about down, I feel so lonely.
Talk about down, I’m startin to worry.
Don’t really want to be all alone. I can’t get along with the chicks at home.
The world just don’t seem right, my head is spinnin’, and I hate what’s goin’ down.

You gotta’ find me a better day.

Oh, gotta’ find me a better day.
Gotta’ find me a better day.
You gotta’ find me a better day.
Gotta’ find me a better day.
Gotta’ find me a better day.
Gotta’ find me a better day.
You gotta’ find me a better day.
Gotta’ find me a better day.
Gotta’ find, gotta’ find,
Gotta’ find me a better day.
Gotta’ find, gotta’ find,
Gotta’ find,
Gotta’ find me a better day.
Gotta’ find me a better day.
Gotta’ find me a better day.
Gotta’ find me a better day.
Gotta’ find me a better day.
