I Don't See It That Way - Extra life

The girl heard how New York works

She knows my name and where I apparently stand

She’s got an eye out for who hurts

Who gets crushed by whose hand

She’s offering me a role to play

A spot on the human totem pole, OK

That game is a real shame and I don’t see it that way

This guy looks at me star-eyed

He thinks I’ve got something he needs

He fantasizes my insides

Sad dreams of how another feeds

He’s offering me a role to play

A spot on the human totem pole, OK

That game is a real shame and I don’t see it that way

A hundred reasons to lurk and turn your eyes

A hundred reasons to turn on your best friend

A hundred ways to relieve some ancient horror

A hundred people above, a hundred below

A hundred cogs in this cosmic meat grinder

Only one way to really live

The rock star

The femme fatalle

The tough guy, the witty nerd

The girl next door

The whore with the heart of gold

And the stoic policeman

I don’t see it that way
