The Hideaway Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Time is such a draggy element
Like an elephant you must ride
That's a dull routine in any case
Got to be place you can hide
[Chorus]
You gotta get away from it all
And let it all hang out
We could be havin' a ball
If you take down your wall
And get out of that stall
You're livin' in
[Verse 2]
You don't like my basic attitude
You think I am rude and I may be
I got no responsibility, dependability
I'm so free
[Chorus]
You gotta get away from it all
And let it all hang out
We could be havin' a ball
If you take down your wall
And get out of that stall
You're livin' in
[Bridge]
You're almost a winner
You got yourself together
If you would just untie your tether
And be free
Bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah
Bah bah bah bah
Bah bah bah
Bah bah bah bah
Bah bah bah bah bah bah
[Verse 3]
Cold is such a chilly temperature
Are you really sure you're that kind?
Careful if you smile your face may break
That would really shake up your mind
[Chorus]
You gotta get away from it all
And let it all hang out
We could be havin' a ball
If you take down your wall
And get out of that stall
You're livin' in
Livin' in
Given in
[Outro]
You're given in
All my job
You're given in
All my job
You're given in
Wah...
