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
