Dark Side: The Contrary Nature Of Man

James Young

[Verse 1]
When I was just a youngster
A child with conscience clean
Life's answers seemed so plain to me
But when we venture into
The world at large it seems
That things are different indeed
I need to know

[Chorus]
Why am I drawn to the dark side?
I'm so confused and I'm wondering why
It seems like so much fun bein' bad
When they think I' an innocent lad

[Verse 2]
They taught me modern manners
Taught me to be polite
Taught everything they thought I'd need
But I've got burning questions
Tough choices facing me
What's my responsibility?
Tell me

[Chorus]
What's the attraction of the dark side?
The big bucks for those little white lies
And bein' good seems as boring as hell
I feel the pull of the dark side

[Bridge]
Lyric opera and parlor games
They're much too tame
But is it insane?

[Chorus]
To be drawn to the dark side
I'm really bored with the good guys
What makes me wanna sin until dawn?
Even though I know it's wrong?

[Bridge]
Ice cream socials and tiddlywinks
I think it stinks
I'm on the brink

[Chorus]
Of being drawn to the dark side
I'm wide awake in the dead of night
Bein' good seems as boring as hell
I feel the pull of the dark side

[Outro]
The dark side
I'm in a state of confusion
Son of a southern California [?]
Is there anything really wrong
With a little light-hearted deviltry?
Who really wants me to do what they're told anyway?
