A bunch of new words might Keep the man quiet Just long enough To sharpen my skills Engaging again For a twelve hour battle Then drive him away With red wine and pills He's got the brains the will and the way He's making a fool of me every day I might catch up to him one of these days, you see I'll be damned if I get beaten by him Where I go, he's already been there again Oh been there again We started out pretty well even But beer, food and TV Have put me behind I sit on my lazy ass Counting out coupons He sits in his Benz While someone else drives On a month long vacation With two weeks in Spain And this pay phone is broke And it's starting to rain But I won't give up It might turn out to be my day I'll be damned if I get beaten by him Where I go, he's already been there again Been there again Been there again Been there again Been there again But he's out of my mind On this beautiful morning So let's go for breakfast And coffee for two And talk about things We've no business discussing And dream about things That we'd still like to do With shiny, new money To buy all these things Shiny, new money To buy you the ring I might catch up to him One of these days, you see I just don't care if I get beaten by him Where I go, he's already been there again Oh been there again He's been there again
