lyrics

I thought I'd found someone
Someone to give some meaning
Some meaning to this savage world, oh-oh
But you were talking to a friend
A friend to whom you felt the need
The need to say in reference to me, oh-oh

"He's better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
He's better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
He's better than nothing, I suppose"

Ooh...

I thought you were someone
Someone to whom I could turn
Turn to when everything goes wrong, oh-oh
But you were calling your sister
Your sister to whom you tell
Tell everything that really matters, you said to her, "He's

"He's better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
He's better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
He's better than nothing, I suppose"

Ooh...

"He's better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
He's better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
Better than nothing, I suppose
He's better than nothing, I suppose"

Ooh...

I'd better get used to nothing, I suppose

about

The Photocopies Michigan

Unapologetically old-school #indiepop in a mid-80s-to-early-90s vein, made without secret plans to fill stadiums (ugh). Think lo-fi #c86 #twee #postpunk #janglepop etc. Originally from London.

The greatest to ever do it, do it again! Sometimes lush as a warm blanket, sometimes all the angles of a dance party, always suspended in and out of time _hopskipjump
