Joe Walsh - Living on the Outside Lyrics

Living on the Outside
written: J. Capaldi
sung: J. Walsh

Creepin' through 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 sayin' nothing and Madonna looks so cold
When you're trying 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 loving 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 the4 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

The outside, take a walk with me

The outside, take a walk with me

The outside, take a walk with me

Living on the outside
Lving on the outside
