[Verse 1] Unchain me It's not my midnight yet Act like a fox but think like a sheep (Wall Street) Unchain me Cause this is my bank’s advice We’re gonna give it back to you Some other day [Pre-Chorus] Take off from the runway Thinking of a sad day Racing down the highway Looking at me sideways [Chorus] What side are you standing on? What side you standing on? What side are you standing on? What side you standing on? [Verse 2] Unchain me It’s time I know the way uptown Unchain me I've waited for the time Get you with your pyjamas on [Pre-Chorus] Take off from the runway Thinking of a sad day Playing with his new toys Looking at the sad boys [Chorus] What side are you standing on? What side you standing on? What side are you standing on? What side you standing on? [Bridge] And we take What we like from them And then say “What do you want from me?” [Guitar Solo] [Bridge 2] Don’t wait so long Way too long They wait too long I can’t stay awake too long You never wait for some Other generation I’ll wait somewhere Alone Get it in your head, get out of (my way) [Chorus] What side are you standing on? What side you standing on? What side are you standing on? What side you standing on? What side you standing on? What side you standing on? [Outro] Ohhhh
