What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Tasha's got a room at the county shelter
2
The cops took her there when her mama got hauled away
3
Little brother and her can't even stay together
4
She cries each night wondering why it's gotta be this way
5
And she says "I wish I was anyone but me"
6
Yeah she'd pack her life in a heartbeat for a little change of scenery
7
And she keeps looking for a better place
8
Somewhere she can wear a smile upon her face
9
A home to welcome with a warm embrace
10
There's no way to disguise her lonely eyes
11
Looking for a better place
12
Bobby's doing time in youth detention
13
Pulled a switch blade knife on some boy making fun at school
14
And all he wanted was a little attention
15
And a temporary escape from the ridicule
16
And now he's in real deep with the freaks and the criminals
17
And he wonders when his time is up if he'll know himself at all
18
And he keeps dreaming of a better place
19
Somewhere he can have a little room to make mistakes
20
A home to help him wash the past away
21
Oh he don't need too much, just a little love
22
In a better place
23
In a better place
24
Jamie's got a room in a 3-story brick home
25
Daddy makes a lotta money, mama keeps her laundry clean
26
And she's got a $200 Abercrombie outfit on
27
Drives a brand new car that she got when she turned 16
28
Still she spends every night getting high with her so-called friends
29
And she's dropping hundred dollar bills on quarterbacks, says she's never coming down again
30
And she keeps looking for a better place
31
Failing to realize how good she's got it made
32
Her loving home, she don't appreciate
33
Oh it's crazy but it's true, she doesn't have a clue
34
She's living in a better place
35
In a better place
36
In a better place
37
We're all lookin for a better place
