Once I had it all planned out

My dirty fingers moved about

To make a mess of everything around me

I don't claim to know my way

I still run in circles every day

Running around half blind

Life can be unkind

But it's better than it was

I complain very little because

It's better than it was

I get to remembering

We had alot more money then

To make a mess of everything around us

Now the money comes and goes a bit faster

Than my confidence grows

Everybody knows

There ain't nothing new about money woes

It's better than we ever could have

Wished it to before

It was bad a while ago

Better than this I know

It's better than it was
