Lyrics

0:08Right here right now
0:09I put the offer out
0:11I don't want to chase you down
0:12I know you see it
0:14You run with me
0:16And I can cut you free
0:17Out of the treachery and walls you keep in
0:22So trade that typical for something colorful
0:25And if it's crazy live a little crazy
0:28You can play it sensible a king of conventional
0:31Or you can risk it all and see
0:36Don't you wanna get away from the same old part you gotta play
0:41'Cause I got what you need
0:43So come with me and take the ride
0:46It'll take you to the other side
0:48'Cause you can do like you do
0:50Or you can do like me
0:51Stay in the cage or you'll finally take the key
0:55Oh damn suddenly you're free to fly
0:59It'll take you to the other side
1:01Okay my friend you want to cut me in
1:04Well I hate to tell you but it just won't happen
1:07So thanks but no
1:09I think I'm good to go
1:10'Cause I quite enjoy the life you say I'm trapped in
1:13Now I admire you and that whole show you do
1:16You're onto something really it's something
1:20But I live among the swells and we don't pick up peanut shells
1:23I'll have to leave that up to you
1:26Don't you know that I'm okay with this uptown part I get to play
1:31'Cause I got what I need and I don't want to take the ride
1:36I don't need to see the other side
1:38So go and do like you do
1:40I'm good to do like me
1:41Ain't in a cage so I don't need to take the key
1:44Oh damn can't you see I'm doing fine
1:49I don't need to see the other side
1:51Now is this really how you like to spend your days
1:54Whiskey and misery and parties and plays
1:56If I were mixed up with you I'd be the talk of the town
1:59Disgraced and disowned another one of the clowns
2:02But you would finally live a little finally laugh a little
2:06Just let me give you the freedom to dream and it'll
2:09Wake you up and cure your aching
2:13Take your walls and start 'em breaking
2:16Now that's a deal that seems worth taking
2:21But I guess I'll leave that up to you
2:29Well it's intriguing but to go would cost me greatly
2:32So what percentage of the show would I be taking
2:35Fair enough you'd want a piece of all the action
2:38I'd give you seven we could shake and make it happen
2:41I wasn't born this morning eighteen would be just fine
2:44Why not just go ahead and ask for nickels on the dime
2:47Fifteen
2:48I'd do eight
2:49Twelve
2:49Maybe nine
2:50Ten
2:54Don't you wanna get away to a whole new part you're gonna play
2:59'Cause I got what you need so come with me and take the ride
3:04To the other side
3:06So if you do like I do
3:08So we could do like me
3:09Forget the cage 'cause we know how to make the key
3:12Oh damn suddenly we're free to fly
3:16We're going to the other side
3:19So if you do like I do
3:20To the other side
3:22So we could do like me
3:23We're going to the other side
3:25'Cause if we do we're going to the other side
3:29We're going to the other side
Right here right now
