Something Better

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!
