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 [bad word] 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 cuz 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 cuz 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.

And I'll never make the same mistake,
the next time I create the universe
I'll make sure you participate, just in case.
