The Other Side of the Road

I’VE GOT HOLES IN MY POCKET

I AIN’T GOT MONEY TO LOSE

GLITTER ON MY SHOES WELL, TRUST ME I DIDN’T CHOOSE IT

MY HEART IS LIKE A ROCKET UNTIL I HEAR THE BLUES


I DON’T READ THE NEWS, MAKES ME FEEL SICK

I CAN’T DEAL WITH MY PROBLEMS, 

TIME IS NOW SO READ IT QUICK


TELL ME

 WHO DARE TOUCH IT, TOUCH A THING, 

WHO DARE TOUCH ME WHEN I’VE GOT THAT SWING


I DON’T CARE IF I’M RIGHT

I DON’T CARE IF I’M WRONG

I’M WALKING DOWN THIS WAY

AND IT DOESN’T REALLY MATTER

WHERE THE WIND BLOWS

 AS I KNOW, 

I KNOW, 

I’M ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD


I’VE GOT STUDIES, ASPIRATIONS, 

I PAY MY DUES WITH DIZZY TATTOOS 

NO ONE KNOWS WHAT TO DO

AIN’T NOBODY GOT A CLUE

MEANWHILE MANDY AND BOOZ 

QUICK RELIEF FROM THE BLUES


WHO KNOWS ANYMORE HOW TO HAVE SEX

WHEN YOU CAN SEE THOSE SHADES 

FROM A MOVIE IN GREY


AND TELL ME 

WHO DARE TOUCH, TOUCH A THING, 

WHO DARE TOUCH ME WHEN I’VE GOT THAT SWING


I DON’T CARE IF I’M RIGHT

I DON’T CARE IF I’M WRONG

I’M WALKING DOWN THIS WAY

AND IT DOESN’T REALLY MATTER

WHERE THE WIND BLOWS AS I KNOW, 

I KNOW, 

I’M ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD
