Common Sense from The Birdcage by Struwwelpeter

I've been on eggshells every night
I'm out of steam, I'm out of fight
I'm here to make amends
There is a reason you're still around
Won't rock the boat, won't make a sound
That's just common sense

Indecipherable but you hear me anyway
Always know what you should never say
Indistinguishable, we could find ourselves in trouble
If we let our expectations rule the day
There'll be hell to pay

You could be happy wearing my skin
Peel it off and slither in
See the world through my eyes
Better to risk and know how to live
Than wait for something else to give
I'm here to compromise

Walking on eggshells
Tiptoeing around the lie
I have no malice
I'm hardly ever that guy
So take my hand and let's fly
Do or die, you and I

And that's just common sense...
