I'm sorry about the sun How could I know that you would burn? And I'm sorry about the moon How could I know that you'd disapprove? And I'll never make the same mistake So, next time I create the universe I'll make sure we communicate at length Oh, yeah... But until then you're better off dead A smile on the lips and a hole in the head Better off dead, it's better than this Take it away 'cause there's nothing to miss I'm sorry about the world How could I know you'd take it so bad? And I'll never make the same mistake So if you're looking for a fantasy Why not try the entire human race? Just to play it safe Until then you're better off dead A smile on the lips and a hole in the head Better off dead, better than this Take it away 'cause there's nothing to miss Better off dead, better off dead Why don't you try pushing daisies instead? Better off dead, better off dead A smile on the lips and a hole in the head And I'll never make the same mistake The next time I create the universe I'll make sure you participate Oh, yeah... And I'll never make the same mistake The next time I create the universe I'll make sure we communicate at length Just in case
