You tell me it's not right
But I won't stop you from comin' over tonight
So restless, hard to satisfy
You don't wanna lose her, so you just gotta lie

It's like a time-bomb, tickin' away
She's gonna find out, blow up in your face
It's a flavor, you just had to taste
And now you had some, it's too good to waste

We're frozen, black and white
You listen to your mama
As if she did it right

Oh, you know the grass is greener
On the other side
Old-fashion ideas
A fairytale that we got trapped inside
Oh, you know the grass is greener
On the other side
No happy endings for us dreamers
Oh, we take a drink and have another try

An angel in his eyes, 
But I'm more like the devil in disguise
Temptation is stronger than me, 
You know I love you, I just gotta be free

And it's like a time-bomb, just tickin' away
He's gonna find out, blow up in my face
It's a flavor, I just had to taste

We're frozen, black and white
You listen to your mama
As if she did it right

Oh, you know the grass is greener
On the other side
Old-fashion ideas
A fairytale that we got trapped inside
Oh, you know the grass is greener
On the other side
No happy endings for us dreamers
Oh, we take a drink and have another try

Wouldn't you like to get away from all the same old things
Why would you settle for something less than second best
It's like we're frozen, black and white
You listen to your mama
As if she did it right
As if she did it right
As if she did it right

You know the grass is greener
But I wanna get on the other side
Old-fashion ideas
A fairytale that we got trapped inside
Oh, you know the grass is greener
On the other side
There's no happy endings for us dreamers
Oh, we take a drink and have another try

I know the grass is greener
But I wanna get on the other side
