So, there's this guy Joe I kind of know
He’s got his heart spot on the tender joint
He may be too shallow or callow
but maybe this man will get the dang point
if he finally just goes inside
all the places he will soon find

He’s looking in all the wrong places
on the outside looking in
Hot Plexiglas blocking the front of his face
like warped vinyl scratching at his chin

He’s on the outside looking in
and he better figure out when
the time is really right
to love again

He don’t wanna act too early
He sure don’t wanna be late
so he’ll cowboy up to this sweet girlie
before he misses that freight train

I hate to break it to you, friend
You’re on the outside looking in again
I’m glad we came to make amends
You’re on the outside looking in again

Just wanted to let you know, Joe
