A Year That Could Have Been Worse (from "Males Of Wormwood Mars" single)

And it was plainly that one
In every place that never did
And it could turn me on
And I was all in and ready
But I'll be doing much better
Now that's the talk of the century
And you're upset
When you're losing the quiet game

In the acceptance of loss
They're playing long gone sympathy
And breaking promising knots
They say life's incredible

But they really are not
And that's the best kind of medicine
When they say that you're shot
Inventing Thomas Edison

And you can turn me on
In the place that never did
Yeah it was plainly that one

It gave us time to re-develop and transform the negative
Into a neutral position

In a year that could have been worse
