The Grass Grows Greener
I have an urge, immensely intense
I'm on the verge of jumping the fence
Although the leap
To begin with is cheap
Consequences come at my expense
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
They only desire
What they can't acquire
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
Still I know
No matter where I go
It's just another other side
My neighbor's garden is like paradise
My own backyard's not nearly as nice
I lose my pride
Setting foot upon that side
Then again, everything has its price
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
They only desire
What they can't aquire
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
Still I know
No matter where I go
It's just another other side
I don't know, should I stay or go
A: If you can, be an honest man
Maybe so, still I don't know
B: Skip the word from the moral nerd
Help me out I'm so in doubt
A: If you're strong you can't go wrong
B: Don't hesitate
A: Take my advice
B: No, take the bait
A: You must be wise
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
Get your satisfaction
From a new attraction
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
Still I know
No matter where I go
It's just another other side
Wrong or right, black or white
Always this internal fight
Once you get what you want
You don't want what you get
You don't see all you have
Until you have all you see
I'm on the verge of jumping the fence
Although the leap
To begin with is cheap
Consequences come at my expense
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
They only desire
What they can't acquire
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
Still I know
No matter where I go
It's just another other side
My neighbor's garden is like paradise
My own backyard's not nearly as nice
I lose my pride
Setting foot upon that side
Then again, everything has its price
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
They only desire
What they can't aquire
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
Still I know
No matter where I go
It's just another other side
I don't know, should I stay or go
A: If you can, be an honest man
Maybe so, still I don't know
B: Skip the word from the moral nerd
Help me out I'm so in doubt
A: If you're strong you can't go wrong
B: Don't hesitate
A: Take my advice
B: No, take the bait
A: You must be wise
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
Get your satisfaction
From a new attraction
Some say the grass grows greener on the other side
Still I know
No matter where I go
It's just another other side
Wrong or right, black or white
Always this internal fight
Once you get what you want
You don't want what you get
You don't see all you have
Until you have all you see
