Lyrics

I was a serpent Hang around the apartment I [?] And then I went Out on the sidewalk I saw me a yellow bus And then I saw me a red dress My money was spent But I, but I was a participant, yeah (Participant) That's what I was (Participant) Yes, I was a participant In the only game I know I [?] But they said I was slow, oh I tried to explain just what I meant But they didn't understand my involvement But I was a participant, yeah (Participant) There was no mistaking it (Participant) The sun is shining on the boulevard Some say it's easy, some say it's hard (Participant) Participant (Participant) That's what I was (Participant) (Participant) Ooh! (Participant) Whaaugh! (Participant) Ooh, wow (Participant) Out walking around My feet on the ground I didn't have a cent My money was spent Down on my luck Down on thе pavement Oh, what a predicamеnt Oh, what a predicament Yeah, participant Participant Participant Yeah, I was a participant That's what I was (Participant) There was no mistaking it (Participant) The sun is shining on the boulevard Some say it's easy, some say it's hard I think I'll split, run for cover I think I'll sit this one out in my ivory tower Participant (Participant) That's what I was I was a participant (Participant) You can't say I was reticent No, I was a participant That's what I was, yeah There was no mistaking it I was not faking it Because I was a participant, yeah
