Intro: Verse: Long as I'm on this side of forever I'll be singin' for my supper, won't say never And the road I take, whether high or low I know Once I catch a song I've got to let it go Here we go now... yeah Verse: Wake up boy this is your conscience Parrot on your shoulder who nags at you to win Loser for a moment, but a moment seems a lifetime Wrong side of the bed, here we go again, here we go again Verse: Nights I've spent so drunk from guzzlin' wonder Morning manager cracks the whip I fight not to go under And If and when my ship rolls in Well, Lord I'll have it made And I'll toss my blues up the sky Throw on my mirrored shaaaaaades Pre-Chorus Some like to play it safe Others dangeroooous, ooooooooooh They say that safety sells But I dig that danger ruuuuuush, ooooooooh Oddball draws his water From another well A sore thumb is a beacon That leads you out of Hell Oddball heed the call You've got to answer when the light goes on Oddball heed the call You've got to answer when the light goes on BREAK: Bathroom wall poet Or a pigeon with a message Hopin' my two-cents worth Will pull you from the wreckaaaaage Pre-Chorus Let the bells of originality ring Let the voices that choose their own path siiiiiiiiiing They say that safety sells But I dig that danger ruuuuuush, ooooooooh Oddball draws his water From another well A sore thumb is a beacon That leads you out of Hell Oddball heed the call You've got to answer when the light goes on Oddball heed the call You've got to answer when the light goes on OUTRO: PLAY You've got to answer when the light goes on You've got to answer when the light goes on (Got to answer when the light goes on) You've got to answer when the light goes on (Got to answer when the light goes on) Ooh, yeah (Got to answer when the light goes on) You've got to answer when the light goes on (Got to answer when the light goes on)
