Intro 
 
(1) 
 
Six numbers, one more to dial  
before I'm before you tonight 
I tried to call 
been busy all night  
gave up waiting at daylight  
 
(2) Excuse me Mrs. Busybody  
could you pencil me in when you can 
though we both know that the worst part about it  
is I would be free when you wanted me  
 
(3) I am the man on the side  
hoping you'll make up your mind  
I am the one who will swallow his pride  
life as the man on the side  
 
(1) 
 
One of the many 
One of the few  
to stand back and wait for you  
 
(4) Excuse me Mrs. Busybody  
could you pencil me in when you can 
though we both know that the worst part about it  
is I would be free when you wanted me  
 
(3) I am the man on the side  
hoping you'll make up your mind  
I am the one who will swallow his pride  
Life as the man on the side  
 
(5) I fell in love with the dream that I built of you  
playing the part of the queen  
Taking my own advice 
I'm giving up tonight  
Good luck to you and the king  
 
(7) Excuse me Mrs. Busybody  
could you pencil me in  
though we both know that the worst part about it  
is I would be free when you wanted me  
 
(3) I am the man on the side  
hoping you'll make up your mind  
I am the one who will swallow his pride  
life as the man 
you know life as the man 
living life as the man on the side
