Jim Capaldi - Living on the Outside

Текст песни

Creepin down the alley, searchin through the trash
You used to own a chalet, before the market crashed
Now your clothes are torn and dirty, and your face is looking mean
Valentino and Versace, it was such an ugly scene
When you were living on the inside
The inside where you thought you had to be But i’m living on the outside
The outside it don’t bother me It’s a terrible obsession, trying to make it to the top
A man in your profession can’t afford to be a flop
Gotta get yourself connected, get the mobile phone
You don’t want to be rejected, you don’t want to be alone
So you’re living on the inside
The inside and all that money brings
But i’m living on the outside
The outside nobody pulls my strings
It’s like the inquisition at the hottest club in town
There’s so much competition tryin' to do each other down
No one’s saying nothing and madonna looks so cold
When you’re to be natural it’s the hardest pose to hold
So you’re living on the inside
The inside where everybody wants to be But i’m living on the outside
Outside where the air is free
They say the ice is melting and the earth is warming up All the animals are dying don’t know where it’s gonna stop
You just look at your computer there’s no need to be upset
You got virtual reality you’re on the internet
And you’re living on the inside
The inside where you think you gotta be But i’m living on the outside
The outside take a walk with me Take a walk with me Living on the outside take a walk with me Living on the outside take a walk with me Living on the outside take a walk with me Living on the outsideLiving on the outside
