On Your Own (Live Acoustic Version)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Holy man tiptoes his way across the Ganges The sound of magic music in his ears Videoed by a busload of tourists Shiny shell suits on and drinking lemonade Well, I got a funny feeling which I bought mail order From a man in a teepee in California Said he once was that great game show performer Then he blew all his money away Blew it all away [Chorus] So take me home, don't leave me alone I'm not that good, I'm not that bad No psycho killer, hooligan gorilla I dream to riot, oh, you should try it I'll eat parole, get gold card soul My joy of life is on that roll And we'll all be the same in the end And then you're on your own Then you're on your own [Verse 2] When we all go happy day-glow in the discos The sound of magic music in our brains Someone stumbles to the bathroom with the horrors He says, "Lord, give me faith, 'cause I've jumped into space" "I'm in outer space" [Chorus] —me home, don't leave me alone I'm not that good, I'm not that bad No psycho killer, hooligan gorilla I dream to riot, oh, you should try it I'll eat parole, get gold card soul My joy of life is on that roll And we'll all be the same in the end 'Cause then you're on your own (La, la-la-la) [Bridge] La, la, la-la, la, la-la La, la, la-la, la, la-la-la La, la, la-la, la, la-la La, la-la, la, la-la [Chorus] So take me home, don't leave me alone I'm not that good, I'm not that bad No psycho killer, hooligan gorilla I dream to riot, oh, you should try it I'll eat parole, get gold card soul My joy of life is on that roll And we'll all be the same in the end 'Cause then you're on your own [Outro] Then you're on your own And then you're on your own And then you're on your own Your own, your own, your own, your own
