Taking the backstairs...
|
|
Before I knew to choose the music of celebrity
|
I sang backups on the backstairs, the backstairs, the backstairs
|
|
I wore out grooves sneaking around the servants' quarters, so
|
So I knew my way around the backstairs
|
There is another West, you'll find out
|
It's nearly thunderous
|
There is another West, much wilder
|
You feel it under us
|
And yet another West,
|
A new one, when you arrive
|
|
I move so slow, I didn't know that I was backing off
|
It was getting backed out on the backstairs, the backstairs, the backstairs
|
|
And I came
|
And I saw
|
And I ran
|
And I won
|
|
And I came
|
And I saw
|
And I ran
|
And I won
|
|
And I came
|
And I saw
|
And I ran
|
And I won
|
|
There is another West, you'll find out
|
It's nearly thunderous
|
There is another West, much wilder
|
You feel it under us
|
And yet another West,
|
A new one, when you arrive
|
Another West,
|
A new one, when you arrive
|
|
Taking the backstairs...
|
|
And I came
|
And I saw
|
And I ran
|
And I won...
|
|
I knew my way around the backstairs
