You just treat me like a clown
But when he gives you his cold shoulder
You fall in love with me again and come around
I'm just ridin' someone elses roller coaster
He goes down and i come up
He goes up and i come down
But it's my fault for hangin' 'round
How long can i keep on being satisfied
On someone elses roller coaster ride
I can do right, i can be right
But it don't matter what i am
I'm like a lover, then like a brother
My life's entirely in somebody else's hands
But i keep ridin' somebody else's roller coaster
He goes down and i come up
He goes up and i come down
It's like he's jerkin' both of us around
How long can i keep on being satisfied
On someone else's roller coaster ride
I need some scissors or something sharper
To cut myself loose from you somehow
Make my own moves, pull my own strings
I'm gonna do it all someday, but for now
I'll keep ridin' someone else's roller coaster
He goes down and i come up
He goes up and i come down
I need my own very merry-go-round
'cause how long can i keep on being satisfied
On someone else's roller c
