I'm sorry about the sun
How could I know that you would burn?
And I'm sorry about the moon
How could I know that you'd disapprovedI'll never make the same mistake
So next time I create the universe
I'll make sure we communicate at length, oh yeahBut until then it's better off dead
A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
Better off dead, it's better than this
Take it away 'cuz there's nothing to missI'm sorry about the world
How could I know you'd take it so bad?
And I'll never make the same mistakeSo if you are looking for a fantasy
Why not trying the entire human race?
Just to play it safeUntil then better off dead
A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
Better off dead, better than this
Take it away 'cuz there's nothing to missBetter off dead, better off dead
Why don't you try pushing daisies instead?
Better off dead, better off dead
A smile on the lips and a hole in the headAnd I'll never make the same mistake
The next time I create the universe
I'll make sure you participate, oh yeahYeah and I'll never make the same mistake
The next time I create the universe
I'll make sure we communicate at length, just in case
