Lyrics
One of These Days
Here I go, on the edge again
It's where I like to live, It's what I know
Will you come with me, could be an interestin' ride
Or will you watch from a distance
And stay safe and warm inside
Chorus
One of these days you oughta come out and play
Bring your raincoat and your rubber duckie and let the rain splash your face
One of these days, ah, it?ll be too late
You?ll be older and the rain?ll be colder so don?t wait, don?t wait
You look cozy in there in your living room
You got your milk and your oreos too
Underneath the blanket I sent you from Mexico
Sittin' in front of the fire
Yeah it sure does look inviting
But I wouldn't last an hour
Chorus
There oughta be some solution here
But the one that keeps comin? to my mind is not the one I wanna hear
East and west don?t meet so why do we think that we
Could ever meet in the middle ah come on, I?m sure that you agree
Chorus
