Far Worse Off - Dave's True Story

I’ve got it bad

But there is someone is such far worse shoes

And though it makes me sad to contemplate

My sorry fate

Hers is one I would not choose

You hurt me so

With your silky words and roving eye

Still it helps to know

That in this world

There’s some poor girl

Who’s far worse off than I

Don’t know if she has money

Or where she went to school

Don’t even know what makes her laugh

Still I feel sorry for the fool

I’ve been through hell

But there is someone in a far worse place

For th truth to tell

This sorry Eve

For whom I griev

Has never seen your face

She may toss quotes from Sartre

Or dig for Inca in Peru

She may recite some Buddhist chant

But still she’s hasn’t got a clue
