lyrics

You think my life is just a silly play
Intended just for you.
You’re taking notes on every word I say
And everything I do.

And you think if you could play my part
you would do it much better than me.
But it’s so easy to criticize
When you’re watching from the balcony.

You got a problem with the way I talk,
Say I don’t act my stage.
You tell me you don’t like the way I walk;
I don’t command the stage.

And you think if you could play my part
you would do it much better than me.
But it’s so easy to criticize
When you’re watching from the balcony.

You got some strong opinions nobody needs to know.
If I don’t entertain you, you don’t have to watch the show.

You disapprove of my relationships
And my career path too.
You even call me with investment tips
You got from who knows who.

And you think if you could play my part
you would do it much better than me.
But it’s so easy to criticize
When you’re watching from the balcony.

Yeah, you think if you could play my part
you would do it much better than me.
But it’s so easy to criticize
When you’re watching,
Watching from,
Watching from the balcony.
Woo!
