The sideways man walks on his hands
Can't keep from dragging his feet
And when he tries
I try
They twist his arms to get a head start
Tycoons love hitting the jackpot
To get back what they've lost
He'd have to raise the bar
The desert heat left us all in the dark
They buried the Sun so I carried the torch
Head over heels with eyes on the prize
I settled for less and it's more than enough
Just say when
Truth be told, I'd rather be sold
Than juggle stepping stones
But when he tries
I try
They all take part to get a head start
Big whigs love hitting the jackpot
Taking all the cheap shots
The referee was wrong
The way they left us all in the dark
They buried the Sun so I carried the torch
The way they left their eyes on the prize
I've settled for less and it's more than enough
Just say when
The way they left us all in the dark
They buried the Sun so I carried the torch
The way they left their eyes on the prize
I've settled for less and it's more than enough
The way they left us all in the dark
Head over heels, but it's never enough
Just say when
