Get Better Lyrics

Get Better by Dan Le Sac

• Imagine a song, that really reached out and touched kids,
• And not in a Daily Mail way, innocence corrupted,
• But in a way where criticism remained constructive,
• And wasn't too politicised and children weren't instructed,
• To behave in a way that was unrealistic,
• Or made out the way they live was somehow sick and twisted,
• But simply pointed out reasons to get it together,
• Not shouting "get a job", but just saying,

• Get better, get better, get better, get better,
• Get better, get better, get,
• Get better, get better, get better, get better,
• Get better,
• Get better,
• Get better, get better, get better,
• Get better, get better, get,
• Get better, get better, get better,
• Get better,

• You see the young mother capital is where I live,
• Little kids being raised by slightly bigger kids,
• Society seems unphased that this is how it is,
• While I'm constantly amazed that this is how it is,
• They confuse love at first sight with lust at first light,
• It must have hurt right when trust first took flight,
• You're young, you've no rights, you long for new heights,
• But some of those nights leave more than love bites,
• Tops cropped, skirts stop at the top of their thighs,
• And the boys got that hungry look in their eyes,
• They wanna be grown up and have respect you see,
• But they're acting uneducated sexually,
• I ain't saying' be celibate,
• Go out and have your fun,
• But there's plenty you can do without impregnation,
• And there ain't nothing wrong at all with having children,
• Just build yourself a little before you try to build them,
• And,

• I see small town syndrome growing in size,
• There's not a lot to do, so the kids they decide,
• To get drunk every night, a glazed eyes disguise,
• Do drugs every night, tired from their lives,
• People getting off their faces for a quiet night in,
• Kids rolling around the streets rowing and fighting,
• But it's all just because life ain't too exciting,
• And it's easier than trying to do the right thing,
• But there are other choices --- if you want them,
• You don't have to tow the line and just float with the flotsam,
• You can build your time better when you find a passion,
• The Internet and public services give free education,
• So it really ain't a case of rich or poor,
• It's a case of self-motivation and nothing more,
• Like Billy says, whether you have or you have not wealth,
• The system might fail you, but don't fail yourself,
• Just,
