Stay on the Outside Lyrics
Could've been, should've been, one, two, three
But recently something has happened to me
Everything always came easily
But today I woke up and felt nothing
Could it be finally finding out that
There's absolutely nothing worth shouting about?
Faced with the choice of just losing my voice
I'd rather shut up and say nothing
On the outside, we have to stick together
On the downside, you just get in the way
I see gray skies and I feel a little better
I see gray skies ahead and it's fine
By
Me, oh...
All the right people seem squeaky clean
Well, all the right people mean nothing to me
Cheatin' and creepin' just to stay on track, they'll offer one hand
And put a knife in your back
I noticed that something is terribly wrong
When they offer the world
Then they turn, and they're gone
You knew from the start you could never belong
You came from the outside, you'll stay on the outside
Stay on the outside
People and places just pass me by
And if I told you I was sorry
I'd be telling a lie
Look at me, happy, I'm way outside
And I'll be happy as long as I stay here
Don't you go pushing me, stay right out...
I'm about to give you something to complain about
Don't you go pushing me, stay right out...
Better stay back and do nothing

On the outside, we have to stick together
On the downside, you just get in the way
I see gray skies ahead and I feel a little better
I see gray skies ahead and it's fine
By
Me, oh...
All the right people seem squeaky clean
Well all the right people mean nothing to me
Creepin' and cheatin' to stay on track
Offer one hand and put a knife in your back
Notice that something is terribly wrong
When they offer the world
Then they turn, and they're gone
You knew from the start you could never belong
You came from the outside, you'll stay on the outside
Live on the outside, welcome aboard
We're happy to offer you nothing at all
This is just entertainment
So make no mistake:
If you're looking for answers
You went the wrong way
If you're asking for answers
You're in the wrong place;
There's absolutely nothing worth trying to say
Just watch where you're walkin' and
Who's in your way
Step up from the outside
Stay on the outside
