Get some sticks and a set of wheels

Get to where it's going on

I'll bet with strange that's just like me

I can feel like i belong



Gettin' it straight - gettin' it set

Maybe someday they won't forget

That i'm out on a wire



I tried so hard to be like

To fit into your plans

But school for me and reality

Are hard to understand

Gettin' it cut - getting it straight

Being on time without being late

I'm out on a wire



It's tough for you to think like me

In a life with your demands

Your rules and laws just crowd me in

I've got nowhere left to stand

You've pushed and held, am i so wrong

To break away and go beyond

I'm out on a wire
