Caught
In a beautiful cage
You can tell from the back of the room
He doesn't look so great
Get him a doctor
Get him a priest
Get him mommy's little helper
To get him through days like these
Who'd you rather be?
Who'd you rather be?
He sweats
Like a man under oath
Got a voice like a screen door slamming
You applaud when he clears his throat
Strange beasts
Trip and dance in the flame
And a voice from the back of the room is saying
Are you not entertained?
Who'd you rather be?
Who'd you rather be?
You make it sound so desperate
You make it sound so desperate
You make it sound so desperate
You make it sound so desperate
He swears
On this of all days
You hope it's one to remember
You'll remember it just this way
The rest of the band
Won't clear the stage
And a voice in the back of my head is saying
Why's it gotta go this way?
Who'd you rather be?
Who'd you rather be?
You make it sound so desperate
You make it sound so desperate
You make it sound so desperate
You make it sound so desperate
You make it sound so desperate
You make it sound so desperate
You make it sound so desperate
You make it sound so desperate
