Man On The Side Lyrics - John Mayer

Six numbers, one more to dial 

Before I'm before you I tried to call 

Been busy all night 

Gave up waiting at daylight 

Excuse Mrs. Busybody 

Could you pencil me in when you can 

Though we both know that the worst part about it 

Is that I would be free when you wanted me 

If you wanted me 

I am the man on the side 

Hoping you'll make up your mind 

I am the one who will swallow his pride 

Life as the man on the side

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

One of the many 

One of the few 

To stand back 

And wait for you 

Excuse Mrs. Busybody 

Could you pencil me in when you can 

Though we both know that the worst part about it 

Is that I would be free when you wanted me 

If you wanted me, if you wanted me 

I am the man on the side 

Hoping you'll make up your mind 

I am the one who will swallow his pride 

Life as the man on the side 

Life as the man on the side 

I fell in love with a dream that I built of you 

Playing the part of the Queen 

Taking my own advice, I'm giving up tonight 

Good luck to you and the king

Excuse Mrs. Busybody 

Could you pencil me in 

Though we both know that the worst part about it 

Is I would be free when you wanted me 

If you wanted me, if you wanted me 

I am the man on the side 

Hoping you'll make up your mind 

I am the one who will swallow his pride 

Life as the man, you know life as the man 

Living life as the man on the side
