It's Better Than That
 (Lou & Peter Berryman, ©1984)
 

I got a flash for you kids who think adults are lucky
Own their own cars 'n everything's just ducky
Goin' to bed whenever they want to
If that's what you think, I got a flash for you
It's better than that, take Saturday and multiply it
Times fifty-four, add thirty more, it's better than that

We have a chocolate eclair about as big as your head
Way before noon before we get out of bed
We do the things you're not allowed to do
Then we do things you haven't thought of too
Hang on to your hat, hang on to your baloney sandwich
Take fifty grand to Disneyland, it's better than that
 
And if you think that our days are extra warm and sunny
A pile of toys a pocketful of money
With no one to fear because we're big and tall
We're never in school because we know it all
It's better than that, more comfy than a secret hideout
By quite a bit, just think of it, it's better than that
 
And if you think we're not smothered like the Beav and Wally
'n if we want a horse we get a horse by golly
If we wanna play we get to play with food
If we wanna run we run with scissors nude
It's better than that, it's finer than the fastest bicycle
A 20-speed velocipede, it's better than that
Take fifty grand to Disneyland, it's better than that
