A Year That Could Have Been Worse by Teenage Guitar Lyrics
And it was plainly that one
In every place that never did
And it could turn me on
And I was all in and ready
But I'll be doing much better
And that's the talk of the century
It's the falling effect
When you're losing the quiet game
In the executive lots
They're playing long gone sympathy
And breaking promising knots
They say they're nice and credible
But they really are not
And that's the best kind of medicine
When we're all in the dark
Inventing Thomas Edison
And you can turn us on
In every place that never did
Yeah, it was plainly that one
It gave us time to re-develop
And transform the negatives
Into a neutral position
In a year that could have been worse
In every place that never did
And it could turn me on
And I was all in and ready
But I'll be doing much better
And that's the talk of the century
It's the falling effect
When you're losing the quiet game
In the executive lots
They're playing long gone sympathy
And breaking promising knots
They say they're nice and credible
But they really are not
And that's the best kind of medicine
When we're all in the dark
Inventing Thomas Edison
And you can turn us on
In every place that never did
Yeah, it was plainly that one
It gave us time to re-develop
And transform the negatives
Into a neutral position
In a year that could have been worse
