Taking the backstairs...
Before I knew to choose the music of celebrity I sang backups on the backstairs, the backstairs, the backstairs
I wore out grooves sneaking around the servants' quarters, so So I knew my way around the backstairs There is another West, you'll find out It's nearly thunderous There is another West, much wilder You feel it under us And yet another West, A new one, when you arrive
I move so slow, I didn't know that I was backing off It was getting backed out on the backstairs, the backstairs, the backstairs
And I came And I saw And I ran And I won
And I came And I saw And I ran And I won
And I came And I saw And I ran And I won
There is another West, you'll find out It's nearly thunderous There is another West, much wilder You feel it under us And yet another West, A new one, when you arrive Another West, A new one, when you arrive
Taking the backstairs...
And I came And I saw And I ran And I won...
I knew my way around the backstairs
