lyrics
She's been waiting for a heart attack
Some man to come & knock her on her back
And it doesn't seem to matter she's already attached
Her man at home, he's as blind as a bat
So she's sidesteppin
She's sidesteppin now
He calls home, he'll be back pretty late
Got a big, big project that he can't delay
But he's not at the office, he's out on a date
With a 6'1" blonde he met Saturday
He's sidesteppin
He's sidesteppin now
We're all sidesteppin
All sidesteppin now
Are you home feeling all alone?
With the same old Joe, no electric flow?
Don't fear, a solution's here
Erase all your debt with a tête-à-tête
All sidesteppin
All sidesteppin
No one's happy in the place they're in
Everyone's peeking at their neighbor's garden
No way to fight it cuz it's in our bones
Made to wander, we were born to roam
We're all sidesteppin
All sidesteppin now
We're all sidesteppin
All sidesteppin now
I'm so tired of love wearing out
When it begins, so fierce, so loud
But then it fades
I get the urge to step out
I should say goodbye
Cut it off clean
Instead of sneaking around
But I'm in boredom up to my neck
Walking straight is a lifeless trek
I ain't found a love worth saving yet
I'm sidesteppin next chance I get
