Been There Again Songtext
von Acoustic Syndicate

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
