mercedes lackey - philosophy lyrics

[intro]
oh, what’s the use of living if you never learn to laugh?
why look at me i grub down among the riff and raff?
but you won’t catch me glomming ’round with out a hint of smile!
and if i have to do a thing i do it right with style!

[verse 1]
now take the time that i was “borrowing” a thing or two
the owner of the house walked in, well what was i to do?
i bowed and said “don’t stir yourself” before he raised a shout
thanks for your hospitality, i’ll find my own way out

[chorus]
cause if your gonna be the one
to take that tight+rope walk?
and if your gonna be the one
who makes the gossips talk?
if it’s your job to be the one
who always takes a chance
and if you have to cross thin ice
then cross it in a dance!
[verse 2]
i just come up a chimney, i was black from head to toe
climb to the art to find a watchman+ well wouldn’t you just know!
but in the dark he took me for a demon i would bet
cause when i howled and went for him, i bet he’s running yet

[verse 3]
take my companion, did you know i thought to steel her too
this pretty horse out in the street, no owner in my view!
i grabbed the reigns and hopped on board i thought i was home free…
until i looked into her eyes… and now the joke’s on me!

[outro]
cause now i’m gonna be the one
to take that tight+rope walk!
and now i’m gonna be the one
who makes the gossips talk!
oh it’s my job to be the one
who always takes a chance
and if i have to cross thin ice
i’ll cross it in a dance!
