Lyrics

Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead (I'd dig u)
Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead
Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead (I'd dig u)
Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead

A long time ago, u took six months a walkin'
Talkin' on the other side
What started as an experiment
Turned into a heaven-sent message that saved your ass from dyin'
Somebody said

"In life there's always peaks and valleys..
And if you're lost they won't show u the way"
That same somebody said "I'd dig u better dead
But I'd much rather see if your god is what u say, say, say"

And with the awesome power they struck
1St they offered up the buck
Right in the middle, right in the middle they stuck (right in the middle)
A toke or 2, what the fuck? (what the fuck?)

One minute you're hot
Tell the truth and you're not
That's the noose that they hang on a goose like u
Somebody said

"In life there's always peaks and valleys..
And if you're lost they won't show u the way"
That same somebody said "I'd dig u better dead
But I'd much rather see if your god is what u say, say, say"

Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead
Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead
Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead
Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead

And whatever u do, don't make somebody happy
Don't dress 2 freaky and make their daughters stare
Then u'll find out how deep the valley truly be
If u plan on catchin' the bus, u better have plenty fare
Somebody said

"In life there's always peaks and valleys..
And if you're lost they won't show u the way"
That same somebody said "I'd dig u better dead
But I'd much rather see if your god is what u say, say, say"

Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead
Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead
Dig, dig, dig u better dead
I'd dig, dig u better dead
Somebody said

"In life there's always peaks and valleys..
And if you're lost they won't show u the way"
That same somebody said "I'd dig u better dead
But I'd much rather see if your god is what u say, say, say"

I'd dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead
Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead
Dig u better dead, I'd dig u better dead
