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

The next time I create the universe, I'll make sure we communicate at length

Oh yeah

But until then

Better off dead

A smile on the lips and a hole in the head

Better off dead

Yeah, 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 patsy, why not try the entire human race

Just to play it safe?

But until then

Better off dead

A smile on the lips and a hole in the head

Better off dead

Yeah, better than this

Take it away, 'cause there's nothing to miss

Better off dead

You're better off dead

Why don't you try pushing daisies instead?

Better off dead

You're 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 (one, two!)
