If ain't nobody tell you nada or interfere
You're on the right track with the wrong idea
Walkin' on the wild side (wild side, wild side)
The wild side (the wild side)
Walkin' on the wild side, checkin' your rear
Danger may seem closer than it appear
Workin' up a sweat, chasin' all of your fear
Probably goin' deaf from all of the cheer
Now you're cryin' out, but nobody hear
And you're reachin' out, but nobody here
But you walkin' on the wild side (the wild side)
The wild side (the wild side)
Walkin' on the wild side (the wild side)
The wild side (the wild side)
Walkin' on the wild side, the ghetto is clear
Cracks in the windshield, smears in the mirror
Hustle from the gutter to the top of the hill
Now you're standin' in the spotlight, but nobody see you
They just see your wild side, isn't it weird?
Make you wanna outright disappear
Party like a rock-star, how does it feel?
You done turned your lifestyle into a career
Of walkin' on the wild side (the wild side)
The wild side (the wild side)
Walkin' on the wild side (the wild side)
The wild side (the wild side)
Walkin' on the wild side (the wild side)
The wild side (the wild side)
Walkin' on the wild side
The wild side (the wild side)
Walkin' on the wild
Life is psychedelic, yeah, it's quite the mind trip
Walkin' on the wild side
Peer pressure rarely turns coal to diamonds
I dived in headfirst into shallow waters
It wasn't deep enough, I emerged and swam farther
They whispered my accomplishments and yelled my failures
When the gods choose to punish us, they answer our prayers
Oh, the wild, the wild side
The wild, the wild side
Oh, that's pretty
