Other People's Lives

Where the grass is always greener

where the grass don't grow

you`ll see everything in colour `till you see it close.

Everybody els's street looks like it's painted gold

Don't it always go that way?

Suzy wanted money to spend

wanted some rich older man

to take her from the world she was living in

to the world on the other side.

Suzy was bored with her life

wanted something more to do with her

nights

She said: Someday I'm just gonna pack it up

and leave this all behind!

She wanted a piece of paradise

She wanted a change of scene

She wanted to live the priviledged life and nothing in-between.

Other people's lives always look so easy

when you're standing on the other side

Other people's lives.

Johnny was tired of working all day

working where the pennies for pay

He said: Anybody's life in the world

has gotta be better than the life I got.

Johnny had big things in mind

had big dreams just burning inside

He said: Someday I wanna climb my way out of this

Climb my way right to the top!

He wanted a piece of paradise

he wanted to break away (break away)

He wanted to live the easy life

you know what people say:

Other people's lives always look so easy

when you're standing on the other side.

Other people's lives always look much better

when you're seing them through different eyes

Other people's lives.

Where the grass is always greener

where the grass don't grow

you`ll see everything in colour `till you see it close.

Everybody els's street looks like it's painted gold

Don't they always go that way ?

Suzy

she's got the money to spend

married some rich older man

gives her everything in the world she needs

everything but love.

Johnny

he's got the job of his dreams

now he wonders is this what it all means ?

You see, sometimes you can have it all and still it's not enough.

He wanted a piece of paradise

She wanted a change of scene

but sometimes you know that paradise ain't always what it seems.

Other people's lives always look so easy

when you're standing on the other side.

Other people's lives always look much better

when you're seing them through different eyes

other people's lives.

Other people's lives always look much better

when you're seeing them through different eyes
