2X
Riff
I worked hard, but not for the money
Did my best to please
I used to think it was funny
'Til I realized it was all a tease
riff 2x
Don Quixote had his windmills
Ponce de Leon took his cruise
Took Sinbad seven voyages
To see that it was all a ruse
(That's why I'm) Looking for the next best thing
Looking for the next best thing
I appreciate the best
But I'm settling for less
'Cause I'm looking for the next best thing

Looking for the next best thing
riff 1 x
All alone on the road to perfection
riff 1 x
At the inspection booth they tried to discourage me
riff 1 x
You can believe what you want--that'll never change it
riff 1 x
You'll have to come around eventually
(And you'll be) Looking for the next best thing
Looking for the next best thing
I appreciate the best
But I'm settling for less
'Cause I'm looking for the next best thing
