| Listen to a story 'bout a man like me |
| He been ridin' on the backs of snakes since he was three |
| He never knew the truth cause his mama lied |
| He tried to steal the sun from the sky |
| but his hands were always tied |
| Now I’ll recover what I’ve lost |
| As I learn to count the cost |
| I’ll redeem my inner self |
| Before I turn into someone else |
| Livin' on a wire, can’t get any higher |
| As the weight of the world comes down |
| Know I’ve gotta find, answers in my mind |
| I don’t wanna go underground (six feet!) |
| Here he go again always chasin' the crown |
| But lie never did learn |
| how to dance with the good foot down |
| By now he had enough of that life on the road |
| He gonna jump in the getaway car |
| before the fuel on the fire explodes (boom!) |
| Got to fight for where I stand |
| Have to live life as I planned |
| I won’t set my soul aside |
| If I die then I know I tried |
| Livin' on a wire, can’t get any higher |
| As the weight of the world comes down |
| Know I’ve gotta find, answers in my mind |
| I don’t wanna end up underground |
| Livin' on a wire, can’t get any higher |
| As the crazy world goes 'round |
| Know I’ve gotta find, answers in my mind |
| I don’t wanna go underground (six feet!) |
| Let’s go underground!!! |
| Livin' on a wire, can’t get any higher |
| As the weight of the world comes down |
| Know I’ve gotta find, answers in my mind |
| I don’t wanna go underground, no |
| Livin' on a wire, can’t get any higher |
| As the crazy world goes 'round |
| Know I’ve gotta find, answers in my mind |
| I don’t wanna go underground (six feet!) |
| That’s what I said! Sing… ba ba ba da da… |
