i heard it on a saturday night

you hopped on that last minute flight


i can't say that i was surprised


but i'mma let you finish girl, i'm sure you tried




i know you're down in the dumps


but at least you're rich, and your songs don't suck

so take that 13 for luck and find


there's 100 others waiting in line




whatever, it's for the better


hey hey, whatever, it's for the better




i bet you see the tabloids around


throwing your face all over the town


they say you'll probably write him a song

five times platinum, i doubt if they're wrong





i know you're down in the dumps

but at least you're rich, and your songs don't suck


so take that 13 for luck and find


that there's 100 others waiting in line




whatever, it's for the better


hey hey, whatever, it's for the better
