Either side of the world
chase the sun
pay the maximum rate
to feel so lonesome
wrapped up like little lambs
safe from harm
enjoy it while you can
happiness is far from home

You know it, he knows it, everybody knows it
when you're in luck
the world moves with you
whatever you want
they are happy to give you
at the last resort

Where the famous have come
to be alone
they try to work it out
the same progression
sometimes i try too hard to overcome
sometimes i think too much
wish I could have held my tongue

You know it, he knows it, everybody knows it
when you're in luck
the world moves with you
whatever they want
you turn yourself into
and then you're in hell
luxury and leisure
never meant pleasure
we like it different
passion and commitment

You know it, he knows it, everybody knows it
when you're in luck
the world moves with you
whatever they want
you'll turn yourself into
then you're in hell
luxury and leisure
never meant pleasure
we like it different
passion and commitment
