Born To Be Right

Lyrics

Maybe I'm in love with you babe but I just don't know myself And I take pride in believing I'm running the show with no-one else I'm at the party, I'm running the party I only party when I'm running the party Then I'll act like a fool on parade till you take me off the shelf I was born to be right I'm not living if I'm living a lie I'm a loner wondering what it's like to have you by my side But I told you a lie When I told you I was feeling alright And there's room for one more when I bathe in my solitary pride I've been playing myself in a film and its' drawing to a close But it's only a disguise if you're in someone else's clothes I'm up on Broadway, a star up on Broadway You only see me when it's cocktails and gourmet If I've gone blind in the spotlight babe then never let me know I was born to be right I'm not living if I'm living a lie I'm a loner wondering what it's like to have you by my side But I told you a lie When I told you I was feeling alright And there's room for one more when I bathe in my solitary pride Instant pleasure, middle class Raise a toast I'll drain the glass But first I'll look you in the eye And when I'm broke, light you a smoke Have a laugh, I like a joke Just as much as the next guy Cause it's on you we're dining out where journalists don't write about On an extended credit line I like your smile just enough, I'm never gonna call your bluff I was born to be right I'm not living if I'm living a lie I'm a loner wondering what it's like to have you by my side But I told you a lie When I told you I was feeling alright And there's room for one more when I bathe in my solitary pride
