It Doesn't Get Better Than This


I come to your door
Climb up your stairs
Crawl into your bed
With a kiss
I thank God for
The answers to my prayers
It doesn't get better than this

You fell from the blue
Soft like a star
Looked up and I whispered a wish
The next think I knew darling
There you are

It doesn't get better than this

Yeah it doesn't get better than this
I'm letting go of old ghosts
That came close but they missed
And what might have been
Can't begin to compare to what is
It doesn't get better than this

The moon's on the run
The sun's catching up
In my dreams, we're older with kids
I'm thinking someone
Wished me the best of luck
It doesn't get better than this
Doesn't get better than this

The Horror, The Horror


So I'm relaxing on the deck at Jenk's Inlet, just soaking up some rays and enjoying a Foster's Oil Can when I see it out of the corner of my eye. Suddenly, it comes into sharp piercing focus. The horror!

MADE IN CANADA.

WTF is "made in Canada" doing on my friggin' Fosters? Now, I've got nothing against Canadian beer. Every once in a while I'll throw back a Molson or LaBatt's. But Fosters is supposed to be Australian for Beer Mate! Brewed under license eh? It just left a sour taste in my stomach. Or maybe it was that sushi I had earlier.

I couldn't find a red, white and blue doo-rag. What the hell's the boardwalk coming to?
