The Best Thing - Electric Youth

Monkeys on their back

A scorpion’s on yours

You know their hearts are black

They can’t follow the course

You’d only take a life

That was already over

To save another

No guns or bombs or knives

Your hammer, your hands

Your heart is full

And you, and you

Are the best thing that’s ever happened to me

And you, and you

Are the best thing that’s ever happened to me

And you, and you

Are the best thing that’s ever happened to me

And you, and you

Are the best thing that’s ever happened to me

They say you have no name

They say you show no signs

And who you are by the day

Isn’t the same in the night

But you’d only take a life

That was already over to save another

No guns or bombs or knives

Your hammer, your hands

Your heart is full

And you, and you

Are the best thing that’s ever happened to me

And you, and you

Are the best thing that’s ever happened to me

And you, and you

Are the best thing that’s ever happened to me

And you, and you

Are the best thing that’s ever happened to me
