My reality cheque has bounced
Can’t take much more than an ounce
You need a heart of stone
Not to laugh when I’m down for the count
I’m gonna fight my way out
You think I should behave
You think I’m digging my own grave
It’s gonna take a lot to get me outta this spot
I’m nobody’s slave
Baby I’m this way 24 hours a day
Trying to make a living
While everybody’s making hay
And I can’t go out tonight
'Cos I don’t have a light
Somebody stole my Milky Way
And I can’t come out to play
You just roll in with the tide
Like you’re just along for the ride
Are you with me or not
‘Cos I’m givin’ it my best shot
You better start taking sides
Baby I’m this way 24 hours a day
Tryin to make a livin’
While everybody’s making hay
And I can’t go out tonight
'Cos I don’t have a light
Somebody stole my Milky Way
And I can’t come out to play
And I can’t go out tonight
'Cos I don’t have a light
Somebody stole my Milky Way
And I can’t come out to play
