Second Best

He is better looking than me.
He'll probably get a degree in how a person should be.
It's true. No wonder he's with you.
There's nothing I can do. Maybe I should stop complaining.

I'm pretty cool too,
But that doesn't matter to you.
It's just the way it goes, I guess.
I'll just settle for second best.

His car is faster than mine by far.
He'll probably be a star and everything he does is perfect.
Of course, he's better than me at sports. He probably uses the force
He's all a girl could ask for.

He's better than me in every way.
His band don't even have to rehearse
But I should still be happy.
Because second best is better than second worse.
