Outsider

[Verse 1]
I thought about
All of these people
Passing me by
Why does it get me down?
I’m window shoppin’
I want what they got
Everyone’s laughin’
Why won’t they let me in?

[Chorus]
I’m just an outsider
Yeah
I’m just an outsider
Yeah. yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Outsider
Yeah
I’m just an outsider
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
All of a sudden
It’s time for taxes
So many bills to pay
And I’m out of practice
Forgot how it was
Before I imagined
I could do anything
But this is what happened
The road got to rough
And I lost my traction
Forget about love
Therе’s no satisfaction
I’m packing it up
I lost all my passion
Enough is enough
It’s gone out of fashion

[Chorus]
I’m just an outsider
Yеah
I’m just an outsider
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I’m just an outsider
Yeah, yeah
I’m just an outsider
Whoah-oh, whoah-oh

[Verse 3]
I can’t believe I never noticed that
If not for me, I would’ve already known this
And there’s a seed that just keeps growin’ inside
It’s got to be, ‘cause it’s already showin’

[Chorus]
Yeah
Just an outsider
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I’m just an outsider, yeah
Yea-ah
I’m just an outsider
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Just an outsider
Yea-ah, yea-ah

[Verse 4]
Went to the preacher
Right up to the steeple
Teacher, oh, teacher
I can’t be so cynical
You tell me it takes some time
But I’m ‘bout to lose my mind
I can’t keep goin’ on and on
Somethin’s gotta give, yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
Ain’t nobody wanna hear from me
So I stay quiet and behind the scenes, yeah
Missin’ all the most important pieces
Doin’ everything without a reason why

Ain’t nobody wanna hear from me
So I stay quiet and behind the scenes, yeah
Missin’ all the most important pieces
Doin’ everything without a reason why

Ain’t nobody wanna hear from me
(Just an outsider)
So I stay quiet and behind the scenes, yeah
(Just an outsider)
Missin’ all the most important pieces
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Doin’ everything without a reason why
(Just an outsider)
Ain’t nobody wanna hear from me
(Just an outsider)
So I stay quiet and behind the scenes, yeah
Missin’ all the most important pieces
Doin’ everything without a reason why

[Verse 5]
See, I been this way all my life
Been called selfish more than twice
People would give me their advice
But I just nibble and never bite
See, me, I always try to keep it light
And that always seems to make some people tight
But everything ain’t always black and white
And I gotta do what I consider right, yeah
Problems used to keep me up at night
But now I’m good ‘cause I got some hindsight
And I don’t worry ‘cause I got my mind right
And I don’t hurry ‘cause I know I got time
And I don’t waste shit, not on my dime
I’m scoopin’ up whatever I can find
Put it on a plate and squeeze some lime
Cut it up and put it in a line
