I'm sorry about the sun
   How could I know that you would burn?
   And I'm sorry about the moon
   How could I know that you'd disapproved?
   And I'll never make the same mistake
   So next time I create the universe
   I'll make sure we communicate at length
   Oh yeah
  
   But until then... better off dead
   A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
   Better off dead, it's better than this
   Take it away cuz there's nothing to miss
   I'm sorry about the world
   How could I know you'd take it so bad?
   And I'll never make the same mistake
   So if you're looking for a patsy
   why not try the entire human race
   Just to play it safe
  
   Until then... better off dead
   A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
   Better off dead, better than this
   Take it away cuz there's nothing to miss
   Better off dead, better off dead
   Why don't you try pushing daisies instead
   Better off dead, better off dead
   A smile on the lips and a hole in the head
  
   And I'll never make the same mistake
   The next time I create the universe
   I'll make sure you participate
   Oh yeah
  
   And I'll never make the same mistake
   The next time I create the universe
   I'll make sure we communicate at length
   Just in case
