JOHN MAYER - Man On The Side lyrics

rate me

six numbers, one more to dial

before I'm before you

I tried to call

been busy all night

gave up waiting at daylight

excuse me Mrs. Busybody

could you pencil me in when you can

though we both know that the worst part about it

is I would be free when you wanted me

if you wanted me

I am the man on the side

hoping you'll make up your mind

I am the one who will swallow his pride

life as the man on the side

one of the many

one of the few

to stand back and wait for you

excuse me Mrs. Busybody

could you pencil me in when you can

though we both know that the worst part about it

is I would be free when you wanted me

if you wanted me, if you wanted me

I am the man on the side

hoping you'll make up your mind

I am the one who will swallow his pride

Life as the man on the side

Life as the man on the side

I fell in love with the dream that I built of you

playing the part of the queen

taking my own advice

I'm giving up tonight

good luck to you and the king

excuse me Mrs. Busybody

could you pencil me in

though we both know that the worst part about it

is I would be free when you wanted me

if you wanted me, if you wanted me

I am the man on the side

hoping you'll make up your mind

I am the one who will swallow his pride

life as the man

you know life as the man

living life as the man on the side
