[Verse 1]
Could've been, should've been, one, two, three
But recently something has happened to me
Everything always came easily
But today I woke up and felt nothing
Could it be finally finding out that
There's absolutely nothing worth shouting about?
Faced with the choice of just losing my voice
I'd rather shut up and say nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
On the outside, we have to stick together
On the downside, you'll just get in the way
I see grey skies, and I feel a little better
I see grey skies ahead, and it's fine by me, oh...
[Chorus]
All the right people seem squeaky clean
Well, all the right people mean nothing to me
Cheatin' and creepin' just to stay on track
They'll offer one hand and put a knife in your back
You'll notice that something is terribly wrong
When they offer the world, then they turn and they're gone
You knew from the start, you could never belong
You came from the outside, you'll stay on the outside
Stay on the outside
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
People and places just pass me by
And if I told you I was sorry I'd be telling a lie
Perfectly happy, I'm way outside
And I'll be happy as long as I stay here
Don't you go pushing me, stay right out
I'm prepared to give you something to complain about
Don't you go pushing, just stay right out
Better stay back and do nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
On the outside, we have to stick together
On the downside, you'll just get in the way
I see grey skies ahead, and I feel a little better
I see grey skies ahead, and it's fine by me, oh...
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
All the right people seem squeaky clean
Well, all the right people mean nothing to me
Creepin' and cheatin' to stay on track
Offer one hand and put a knife in your back
You'll notice that something is terribly wrong
When they offer the world, then they turn and they're gone
You knew from the start, you could never belong
You came from the outside, you'll stay on the outside
[Verse 3]
We're from the outside, welcome aboard
We're happy to offer you nothing at all
This is just entertainment, so make no mistake
If you're looking for answers, you looked the wrong way
If you're asking for answers, you're in the wrong place
There's absolutely nothing worth trying to say
Just watch where you're walking, and who's in your way
And stand up for the outside, stay on the outside
