Living life at ease He tries to keep it straight Filling all the cracks Unlocking all the gates Heart - Style - Grace He gives a little back Makes it very nice Never runs away Rolls his dirty dice Everybody's got to do what they got to do From him and her to me and you Right or wrong, he keeps on movin' his own way Likes to wear a surly frown Even when it's the sunniest of days Thinks he owns the world Feels compelled, hates to tell anything about himself Tryin' to find his reason why Tryin' to make his way up off the shelf Hypnotized by the planet's hum Eyes fixed hard on a silent sun There was a time he'd get out Get out of his own way Let it fly, let it ride in the face of dismay Safe to say he'll try Is he shy, is he crazed Gossip knows its way around Once it starts it builds a bomb of sight and sound Fireworks light the sky "Sorry!" he shouts out loud "I don't live my life so every one else can feel proud " (chorus) Give it all this time Stop the waiting, lights are fading Don't get left behind
