On the Outside (Live)

Well, it could be a green day in Hell

Or we could never dance no more

And the thing that you're looking for

It ain't on the outside

Maybe Saturn's off its orbit

And careening down to torch us

But the thing that you're looking for

It ain't on the outside

I said, "Love, you're never gonna find it

Peace, you'll never find it

Strength, you'll never find it

If you're on the outside looking"

Looking on the outside

On the outside looking for the secret

That is hiding within-in

And Salvador Dali's eyes

They burn a hole right through your head

'Cause he knows what you're looking for

It ain't on the outside

And Bob is smoking on his pipe

A beatific smile from his inner light

'Cause he knows you're looking for

It ain't on the outside

And I said, "Love, you're never gonna find it

Peace, you'll never find it

Strength, you'll never find it

If you're on the outside looking"

Looking on the outside

On the outside looking for the secret

that is hiding within

And Old King Cole was a merry old soul

And a merry old soul was he

He called for his pipe and he called for his shoes

And he called for his fiddlers three

No, you'll never find it

No, you're never gonna find it

Peace, you'll never find it

If you're on the outside looking

Are you looking on the outside?

On the outside looking, looking, looking, looking, looking

On the outside looking for that secret

That is hiding within
