Walker, Butch - Better Now Lyrics
You prolly think that you are better now, better now
You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
You know I say that I am better now, better now
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
Oh-oh
I did not believe that it would end, no
Everything came second to the Benzo
You're not even speakin' to my friends, no
You knew all my uncles and my aunts though
Twenty candles, blow 'em out and open your eyes
We were lookin' forward to the rest of our lives
Now it's in your dresser with the socks you don't like
And I'm rollin', rollin', rollin', rollin'
With my brothers like it's [?]
Drinkin' whisky and I'm tryna forget
But I can't get this shit outta my head
You prolly think that you are better now, better now
You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
You know I say that I am better now, better now
I only say that 'cause you're not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
Oh-oh
I seen you with your other dude
He seemed like he was pretty cool
I was so broken over you
Life it goes on, what can you do?
I just wonder what it's gonna take
Another house, another diamond ring
Because no matter how my life has changed
I keep on looking back on better days
You prolly think that you are better now, better now
You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
You know I say that I am better now, better now
I only say that 'cause you're not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
Oh-oh
I promise
I swear to you, I'll be okay
You're only the love of my life
You prolly think that you are better now, better now
You only say that 'cause I'm not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
You know I say that I am better now, better now
I only say that 'cause you're not around, not around
You know I never meant to let you down, let you down
Woulda gave you anything, woulda gave you everything
Oh-oh

Walker, Butch Better Now Comments
This is one of the coolest music videos I’ve ever seen and a testament to how phenomenal Butch Walker is as a musician and producer.
Saw you on Audition channel discussing your music, I appreciate your confidence, but it it borders on cockiness. Never heard your music before, and hope to never hear it again! Growing up in Detroit, i listened to Iggy Pop in the 70s. Your💩 sounds like a bad "boy band"!!
Very cool bro! Glad you are so legit that you grew up in DETROIT. You are SO LUCKY. As far as being “cocky”, you should check out every Iggy Pop interview. By the way.. this song is a cover of a contemporary pop artist, so do you homework. What do you do for a living, bill? I’d love to critique it sometime. What i am really trying to say here is.... go get a fucking life instead of posting 3rd grader comments on YouTube about someone you don’t have a clue about, you fucking man child. Have a great day and fuck off. How’s that for some Detroit love...
@Butch Walker - it's perfect for someone not from the Motor City that has their head up their ASS. 'Man child", as the Alice Cooper lyric states "I got a
Baby's brain and an old man's heart". That 1971 song was a garage-glam-punk trailblazer and you could only hope to be so profound. The Metro Times music staff said it perfectly "the song's an ear-bending snapshot of teen torment that's literate and littered with slinky subtext — its deliberate pace, ascending guitar and bass lines lend a weird tension to this anthem."
William Krupar oh shit, Willy... i didn’t realized you had mental problems. My bad. Keep it chill...
LOVE💕💕
mythical
mucho mejor que la original
very good!!!
"dude, you are so like a musical inceptionist"
I thought this was great, until I found out a week ago that it's by a piece of trash. Now I could care less.
Angry comments from scared old white males in 3...2..1
This is freaking AMAZING. I like it better than the original! On repeat for sure.
Never heard of Post Malone, but I like this song when you do it!
Not sure if there is a better artist that can do a cover of any song and make it amazing.
Man, that's great
Congratulations on your 2 Grammy nominations.. I'm better now
Love it! Ain’t nothing wrong with having a little fun!🥰
I’m a fan dude but damn. song is trash , but hey I can play all these instruments 😐
@Butch Walker I think he's inferring that Butch was showing off his skills as opposed to saying he could do the same thing. Salty comment regardless, really :)
Holy Sh** did you knock that out of the park. Damn, man. Damn.
All the instruments... much like Prince ♥️
now I can´t get this out of my head!
More please!!
Love this, butch. Do more, would ya? ;)
Killing it Butch!
I actually like a Post Malone song now. But Butch could sing the fucking phone book and it would be awesome.
Luv it, great job B..
Ughh! Sooo goood!! I freakin luv ya Mr Walker! 💙💙
The drummer looks like the bass player.
shit! I did not notice that
I don't think the band uniform is helping any.
You are joking, right? It's all the same guy (butch)
r/WOOOOOSH
Pretty awesome Butch!!💘🤩
Great cover!!! Never heard the original before...just did and sorry, this IS better!!!! You turned a mechanical pop schlock tune into a great alternative pop song!!! Butch Strikes Again!!!!
Mista butch walka!!!!! 30yrs and you still got it
Fucking awesome. My daughter is a huge Post Malone fan and she gives this a NICE!
This just made my heart flutter.
I LOVE THIS
How so much talent made it into one person, I'll never know...
I love you butch Walker
So great! I love how you tackle covers and bring something totally different. Thanks for sharing with all of us, and keep them coming :)
Butch, I fucking love you and, this is amazing!! I’ve been a fan ever since the Marvelous 3 days!!
Bieber? Sorry, huge fan but not a fanboy, please rock again.
BadHairDecade this is a Post Malone song....
Classic BUTCH "background vocals"! 😁 Attention to detail and feel is impeccable! Dude can sing the Venice Beach phone book and I'd be enthralled! #squirrel
Do phone books even exist anymore?!
@Steve Ryan I thought the same exact thing when I typed it. Iol The basic point was made though. 😊
Oh no Butch, not a flat brimmed hat. You're way too cool for this MySpace rehashed kid trend. #menoverthirtyshouldntwearflatbrimhats
Hell yeah Brother. ..love those backing vocals.
Been following you since Southgang! Used to come by your FFR shows in FL! Keep Rockin' Butch!!!
Lovin' It!!!
