Oingo Boingo - On The Outside Lyrics
They laugh at me aloudThey say Im just a clownThat I aint got no prideIm on the outsideThe girls look really cuteThey really make it workThey think Im just a jerkIm on the outsideI never could sit stillI never was too hipI never caught the rideIm on the outsideIm on the outside, Im on the outside nowThis is where it all begins right hereOn the outside lookin in, Im on the outsideI never was a punkI never shot junkI never even tried counterCulture passed me right by(Im on the outside)Dont talk to debutantesDont eat in restaurantsThe patrons sit and stareThe waiters make wise cracks behind my back(Im on the outside)Teachers there in schoolThey flunked me by the ruleThey say I had no motivation, brains or dedicationI guess the imbeciles were right Im on the outsideIm on the outside, Im on the outside nowThis is where it all begins on the outside looking inLooking inAt youIm just an alien through and throughTryin to make believe Im youTryin to fitJust a stranger on the outside looking inThe disco makes me sick iWear the wrong clothesI say the wrong thingsYou know I cant danceMy feet are much too wide (Im on the outside)You think you set the trendsYou wear your hair just rightYour clothes are out-a-sightYour house is modern really kitchYou get so macho when youre with your *****(Im on the outside)I see them go to workI see them go to sleepI see them on t.v.I see them laugh and cryIm on the outside. Im on the outside. Im on the outside(repeat chorus)Im on the outside. Im on the outside nowIm on the outsideIm on the outside now
