Story of a man who decided not to breathe Turned red, purple, then blue, colorful indeed No matter how his friends begged, well, he would not concede And now he's dead, you see 'Cause everybody knows you've got to breathe But, oh, God Under the weight of life Things seem brighter on the other side Lighter on the other side Another one, see this monkey sitting in his tree One day decided to climb down and run off to the city Look at him now, tired and drunk and living in the street As good as dead, you see A monkey should know, stay up your tree But, oh, God Under the weight of life Things seem brighter on the other side Oh, God Under the weight of life Things seem much brighter on the other side No way No way No way out Another one, a big eyed fish, yeah, swimming in the sea Oh how he dreamed, he wants to be a bird swoop and diving through the breeze One day, caught a big blue wave up onto the beach Now he's dead, you see A fish's dreams should stay in the sea But, oh, God Under the weight of life Things seem brighter on the other side But, oh, God Under the weight of life Things seem brighter on the other side No way No way No way out No way out |
