Nothing is as Good as They Say It Is

Ron Mael, Russell Mael

[Verse 1]
Nothing is as good as they say it is
That's the way it is, I wish I'd known beforehand
I was born just twenty-two hours ago
But I want to go, back to my former quarters

Mama, mama, can you accommodate?
Mama, mama, tell me I'm not too late
Mama, mama, can you cooperate?
This will not work, I'm sure

[Verse 2]
Nothing is as good as they say it is
And I'd be remiss if I weren't honest with you
This is not a place that I can exist
Not ungratefulness, I just don't want this, want this

Mama, mama, is there a remedy?
Can I just go back where I used to be?
I was happy where I was previously
Just floating there, stood tall

[Bridge]
Mama, mama, please sympathize
This has been such a bad surprise
I won't ask any more from you
I can livе with a lousy view

[Verse 3]
Nothing is as good as they say it is
That's the way it is, I wish I'd known bеforehand
I was born just twenty-two hours ago
But I've seen enough, to make a wise decision

All your standards must be so very low
This is not a place that I'd want to go
How can you exist in a place like this?
I surely can't, oh no

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
Take a look around and you'd understand
This is not a place I could ever stand
Ugliness, anxiety, phony tans
It ain't for me, that's all

[Bridge]
Thank you both for this special chance
Were I born in the south of France
I would feel less resistant to
Somewhere that just deserves adieu

[Verse 4]
Nothing is as good as they say it is
That's the way it is, I wish I'd known beforehand
Nothing is as good as they say it is
That's the way it is, I wish I'd known beforehand

All your standards must be so very low
This is not a place that I'd want to go
How can you exist in a place like this?
I surely can't, oh no

[Outro]
Nothing is as good as they say it is
Nothing is as good as they say it is
