I worked hard, but not for the money
Did my best to please 
I used to think it was funny 
'Til I realized it was just a tease

Don Quixote had his windmills 
Ponce de Leon took his cruise
Took Sinbad seven voyages 
To see that it was all a ruse

(That's why I'm) Looking for the next best thing 
Looking for the next best thing 
I appreciate the best 
But I'm settling for less 
'Cause I'm looking for the next best thing

Looking for the next best thing

All alone on the road to perfection 
At the inspection booth they tried to discourage me 
You can believe what you want--that'll never change it 
You'll have to come around eventually

(And you'll be) Looking for the next best thing 
Looking for the next best thing 
I appreciate the best 
But I'm settling for less
'Cause I'm looking for the next best thing

Looking for the next best thing 
I'm looking for the next best thing
