    Was doing what I usually do while online?listenin' to good and old music?when I happened to hear an old, old classic ? Better Than Anything. *Really listening to the words, I had to wonder... You tell me...

    Is love *really* better than...

    ... cream cheese and bagels / honey on bread / champagne and pretzels / breakfast in bed?

    Better than making a million / better than being a queen?

    Better than oil wells and gold mines? Better than pastures of green?

    Better than rides on the midway?
    Better than seals blowing horns?
    Better than men shot through cannons?
    Better than fresh ears of corn?

    Better than balancing on a wire?
    Or watching tigers jump through fire?
    Better than driving 'round the park?
    Or watching fireflies after dark


    I dunno, y'all. Bein' in love is cool, I know, but better than watching fireflies after dark? C'mon, now. teejay thinks that sometimes these songwriters get a bit carried away.
