She / she used to live with his brother Now she's an unmarried mother / with another / on the way He's seond rate / twisted out of shape and he looks a state, it costs so much to look this rough They go to town / they like to shop around / and look at all those things All those things they never wnated anyway / She hates his hair that stupid coat he wears / but sometimes second best is the best that you can get Oh yes / oh somebody told me / 'cos seconds turn to hours and the hours turn into days / but still it feels like morning The first time leaves its trace / and then slides into second place and still it feels like morning / At night they try to fly hold on tight and close their eyes / and they hit the ground in the morning But in the morning it's raining / Oh Christ you're always complaining can't you think of something else / It's nearly-nu a bargain basement made for two / and if you blur your eyes you could be anywhere / you want yourself to be Oh yeah, it's bad / I know you want to laugh, so laugh But sometimes second best / Is all that you can get Oh yeah / oh somebody told me / the seconds turn to hours and the hours turn into days / but still it feels like morning The first time leaves its trace / and then slides into second place and still it feels like morning / At night they try to fly hold on tight and close their eyes / and they hit the ground in the morning But you're so perfect you don't interest me at all You're golden boy fell down / Don't you know / he hasn't got a personality? And I know / he said he'd last all night then gave you seconds / yeah The seconds turn to hours / and the hours turn into days but still it feels like morning / The first time leaves its trace and then slides into second place / and still it feels like morning At night they try to fly / hold on tight and close their eyes and they hit the ground in the morning / My God they're still alive they got it wrong but they still tried / and they made it through to the morning.
