There's a stack of pizza boxes 
And cigarette stuffed beer bottles up on my TV 
But it's better than I thought it'd be 

There's a pile of dirty laundry 
Where I got the clothes I got on me 
And they're almost clean 
It's better than I thought it'd be 

I toss and turn half the night 
But the other half I sleep alright 
I eat enough to soak up what I drink 
I'm still lonesome I'm still blue 
And I'm still all tore up over you 
But it's better than I thought it'd be 

You pretended not to know me 
When you saw me at the grocery 
Unexpectedly 
But it was better than I thought it'd be 

And with every day that passes 
My love ain't as everlastin' 
As it used to seem 
Yeah it's better than I thought it'd be 

I toss and turn half the night 
But the other half I sleep alright 
I eat enough to soak up what I drink 
I'm still lonesome I'm still blue 
I'm still all tore up over you 
But it's better than I thought it'd be 

I toss and turn half the night 
But the other half I sleep alright 
I eat enough to soak up what I drink 
I'm still lonesome I'm still blue 
I'm still all tore up over you 
But it's better than I thought it'd be 
Yeah baby it's better than I thought it'd be 
Better than I thought it'd be 

Oh it's getting better 
Yeah, I like cold pizza 
Do you know what else is better than I thought it'd be? 
Your sister 
Ha ha ha!
