Consumption Tax

Bought a car the other day,
Man, could that baby run;
But you know what they always say:
There's always a better one.

Wrote a song the other day,
Best thing I've ever sung;
Another band began to play:
There's always a better one.

Found a girl the other day,
Her hair was like the sun;
Sometime soon she'll be turning grey:
There's always a better one.

Got a tumour in my brain,
It's creeping to my lung;
And I've searched around in vain:
Can't find me a better one.
