Better Things To Do Lyrics


Don't tell me the reason that you're calling
Is to see if I'm alright since you've been gone
'Cause I know you and I know why we're talking
You're wantin' me to say I'm barely hangin' onWell, maybe that was true
For a night or two
But now, I got better things to doI could wash my car in the rain
Change my new guitar strings
Mow the yard just the same
As I did yesterdayI don't need to waste my time
Cryin' over you
I got better things to doMaybe when I don't have so much going
Or quite so many irons in the fire
I'll take the time to miss you like you're hoping
But now, I can't put forth the effort it requiresWell, I'd love to talk to you
But then, I'd miss Donahue
That's right, I got better things to doI could wash my car in the rain
Change my new guitar strings
Mow the yard just the same

As I did yesterdayI don't need to waste my time
Cryin' over you
I got better things to doCheck the air in my tires
Straighten my stereo wires
Count the stars in the sky
Or just get on with my lifeI don't need to waste my time
Cryin' over you
I got better things to do
I got better things to do, yeah

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The last band to be signed by the legendary Greg Shaw to his Bomp! Records label before he passed, the Dreadful Yawns had a unique way of dealing with success. On the heels of the release of their critically acclaimed S/T LP, the Yawns broke up, leaving frontman Ben Gmetro with a new album "Rest" completed for Exit Stencil Recordings, but no band. Despite encouragement to put the Yawns to sleep, Ben decided to start over and rebuild the band from the bottom up. After nearly six months locked in the Davenport Collective space known as The Spot, a very different band emerged.
