Story of man who decided not to breath
Turned red, purple then blue
Colorful indeed
No matter how his friends begged
But he would not concede
And nows he's dead you see
Cause everybody knows you've got to breathe
But, oh God, under the weight of life
Things seem better on the other side
Lighter on the other side
And everyone see this monkey sittin' in his tree
One day decided to climb down and run off to the city
But 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
But under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
Oh God
Under the weight of life
Things seem much lighter on the other side
No way, no way
No way, no way
No way out of here
But, oh god
Under the weight of life
Things seem brighter on the other side
And everyone a big eyed swimming in sea
But how he dreams he wants to be a bird swooping
Diving through the breeze
One day he counts on a big blue wave up on to the beach
And 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 of here
