Lyrics from Live Performance
 
 
[Intro]
 
Mmm, what's worse, the—
 
What's worse to you? Oh-oh
 
What's worse?
 
Mmm
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
What's worse, the carry or the curse?
 
She was paired with a maniac and married on the first
 
It was much worse than anyone could tell
 
But he couldn't stick it out so he ended up in jail
 
It was eight months and twenty-seven days
 
And when he got out, he told her, "We should go our separate ways"
 
And the whole world learned about a tape he had recorded
 
They gavе a bunch of money to the maniac, a fortune
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
What's worsе, the lonely or the fame?
 
He got everything he wanted and now everything's the same
 
Much worse when he was back in jail
 
But the feeling wasn't different so he really couldn't tell
 
'Til the girl showed up and changed it
 
She had braids in her hair, old age in her stare
 
But she came to a realization
 
That his heart was in love but his brain wasn't there, and then
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
Yeah, and so the maniac drank as the maniac does
 
And he did the same shit with the same exact drugs
 
It went on for a while, 'bout seven-eight months
 
And the girl got tired as anyone does
 
She showed up and she changed him
 
She was brave and she cared for the boy who was scared
 
But he came to a realization
 
If it didn't stop now, then it wouldn't stop there, and then
