[Like the "Controller" and "Cinderella" demos, this one is pretty much exactly the same as the "Lad" version, with the exception of an added set of lines in the first verse.]
They laugh at me aloud
I'm on the outside, I'm on the outside now
I never was a punk
Don't talk to debutantes
The teachers there in school
I'm on the outside, I'm on the outside now
The disco makes me sick
You think you set the trends
I see them go to work
(I'm on the, I'm on the) I'm on the outside, I'm on the outside
They laugh at me aloud
I'm on the outside, I'm on the outside now
I never was a punk
Don't talk to debutantes
Teachers there in school
I'm on the outside, I'm on the outside now
The disco makes me sick
You think you set the trends
I see them go to work
(I'm on the outside) I'm on the outside, I'm on the outside
Demo Version
They say I'm just a clown
That I ain't got no pride
I'm on the outside
The girls look really cute
They really make it work
They think I'm just a jerk
I'm on the outside
I never could sit still
I never was too hip
I never caught the ride
I'm on the outside
I never was allowed
To join any crowd
They look and me and smile
I'm on the outside
This is where it all begins, right here
On the outside looking in, I'm on the outside
I never shot junk
I never even tried
Counterculture passed me right by
(I'm on the outside)
Don't eat in restaurants
The patrons sit and stare
The waiters make wisecracks behind my back
(I'm on the outside)
They flunked me by the rule
They said I have no motivation, brains or dedication
I guess the imbeciles were right
I'm on the outside
This is where it all begins on the outside looking in
Looking in
At you
I'm just an alien through and through
Tryin' to make believe I'm you
Tryin' to fit
Just a stranger on the outside looking in
I wear the wrong clothes
I say the wrong things
You know I can't dance
My feet are much too wide
(I'm on the outside)
You wear your hair just right
Your clothes are out of sight
Your house is modern really kitsch
You get so macho when you're with your bitch
(I'm on the outside)
I see them go to sleep
I see them on TV
I see them laugh and cry
I'm on the outside, I'm on the outside, I'm on the outside...
(I'm on the, I'm on the) I'm on the outside, I'm on the outside
(I'm on the, I'm on the) I'm on the outside, I'm on the outside
I'm on the outside now
This is where it all begins, on the outside looking in
Looking in
At you
I'm just an alien through and through
Tryin' to make believe I'm you
Tryin' to fit
Just a stranger on the outside looking in
Oh!
I'm on the outside
I'm on the outside now
I'm on the outside
I'm on the outside now
I'm on the outside
I'm on the outside now
