Better Left Behind
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
M.C. say she don't like bringing nobody down
She's the drama queen that sent us screaming back to town
Maybe she's better when I'm better
Maybe she ain't so strange
Baby you ain't as real as the fiction that you read
And we're all better off leaving Miriam behind
The nervous twitch that shook my eye is nearly gone
Though I never really thought that you were truly dangerous
It's just better for us if you stay behind
Baby you ain't the daughter of Mark Twain and Ayn Rand
Like you stated in your press release to your imaginary fans
Maybe you'll go as far as you say
Maybe we'll see you in L.A.
But for now I hope that you stay right where you are
Maybe she's better when I'm better
Maybe she ain't so strange
Baby you ain't as real
As the fiction that you read
