[Verse 1]
I keep on dancing on the roof
Try not to fall, stay in the groove
A step too far. I'm out of place
Life beats you up some of these days
Just like a whisper there's a voice
Inside of me
It's saying you ain't got a choice
Well, can't you see

[Chorus]
Ooh, when your world comes tumbling down
Ooh, you better find a way around

[Verse 2]
I keep on walking in the clouds
Find out what life is all about
I keep on running away from here
To learn the grass ain't greener there
Just like a whisper there's a voice
Inside of me
It's saying you ain't got no choice
As you can see

[Chorus][x2]
Ooh, when your world comes tumbling down
Ooh, you better find a way around
Ooh, cause no one else but you
Ooh, can find the stone inside your shoe

[Bridge]
Inside your shoe
Inside your shoe
Inside your shoe
Yeah

Keep rocking in the street
Keep landing on your feet
Keep running on and on
Still play my favorite blond
Keep rocking mother earth
Just all around the world
These days mean safer sex
Get my survival pack
My orgasm isn't faked
Ooh Lord, I need a break
And what's annoying, too
Is that damn thing in my shoe
Ooh, there is a stone in my shoe
