Lenny / Man On The Side

[Verse One]
Six numbers one more to dial
Before I'm before you
I tried to call been busy all night
Gave up waitin' at daylight

[Pre-Chorus]
Excuse me Mrs. Busybody
Could you pencil me in when you can?
Though we both know that the worst part about it
Is I would be free when you wanted me, if you wanted me

[Chorus]
I am the man on the side
Hopin' you'll make up your mind
I am the one who will swallow his pride
Life as the man on the side

[Verse Two]
One of the many
One of the few
To stand back and wait for you

[Pre-Chorus]
Excuse me Mrs. Busybody
Could you pencil me in when you can?
Though we both know that the worst part about it
Is I would be free when you wanted me
If you wanted me
If you wanted me, hey, hey

[Chorus]
I am the man on the side
Hopin' you'll make up your mind
I am the one who will swallow his pride
Life as the man on the side
Life as the man on the side

[Bridge]
I fell in love with a dream that I built of you
Playin' the part of the queen
Takin' my own advice
I'm givin' up tonight, good luck to you and the king

[Pre-Chorus]
Excuse me Mrs. Busybody
Could you pencil me in when you can?
Though we both know that the worst part about it
Is I would be free if you wanted me
When, when you wanted me
Ohh, when you wanted babe

[Chorus]
I am the man on the side
Hopin' you'll make up your mind
I am the one who will swallow his pride
Life as a man, you know life as a man
Livin' life as a man on the side
