Saw the man
With the hungry sign today
Starin' down
The one who got away
Hey man, you ain't gonna
Guilt me that way
Not today

Help the hand
That helps itself I say
Can't imagine what it takes
To stay that way
So stop pretendin'
Everything's gonna be ok
Not today

So I'm standin'
On the other side
While you're lookin'
For a free ride around
I keep thinking'
That you're lost
But then you're found
Just hangin' around

So tip your hat
To the man
Then run
As fast as you can
Spin your wheels
Around and around
And around
Your feet
Won't fail you now
Get it together

Saw the man
With the hungry sign
Again today
Found a different corner
For the games he plays
Brought a dog along
Just for extra pay
It's hot
I'm callin' the S.P.C.A.

'Cause while you're standin'
On the other side
We ain't lookin'
For a free ride from you
And you know
That it's the little things
That you do
But not today

'Cause you're still standin'
On the other side
Why can't you see
That there's
No free ride around?
I keep thinkin'
That you're lost
But then you're found
Just hangin' around

Saw the man
With the hungry sign today
Flippin' off
The one who got away
