1
Well, would you believe
2
That after my mention of Ray High last week
3
He's been seen out and about in the big city
4
Until now Ray's been locked away
5
Struggling with a follow-up to his last mega-excess
6
But rumor was he couldn't even open a bottle
7
Without a drink inside him
8
There was talk of a nervous breakdown
9
He's even got up the nose of his sexy manager
10
Poor old Rastus Knight
11
Now has a challenged coke habit
12
I've always had a soft spot for Rastus
13
And I've often seen him looking at it
14
While I was away in 'Frisco
15
I hear Ray went into my club and sat at my table
16
Why thanks Ray
17
That put an end to happy hour
18
Why my place anyway, Ray?
19
Nobody there who's anybody cares two filo faxes
20
About peace and love
21
I heard about you Mr. Stinking, rich
22
Has been rodent, drinking vintage Krug
23
As though it was two bob a bottle
24
I'll be watching out for you
25
Free ride to the house of life
26
Free ride to the house of life
27
Free ride to the house of life
28
Free ride to the house of life
29
Free ride to the house of life
30
Free ride
31
I work hard at my job, I save and I save
32
I know what I deserve after all that I gave
33
You know I want that thing
34
You know I want that thing
35
Put aside a little money almost every day
36
When I think that I'm close it just gets further away
37
You know I want that thing
38
I want that thing
39
Free ride to the house of life
40
(I want that thing)

Free ride to the house of life

Free ride
48
(I want it, I want it, I want that thing)
49

50
I don't know if it's truth, don't know if it's lies
51
Just can't be aloof to what you advertise
52
You know I want that thing
53
And I want that thing, c'mon boy
54
I can't wait any longer to choose
55
Can't get my own, gonna have to take yours from you
56
I want that thing, I really want that thing
57
I want it, I want it, I really, really, really want that thing

66
Free ride, I wanna free ride
67
I've planned an alternative
68
I will secretly commandeer one of the Grid life studios
69
And stage a live rock concert
70
For every single person wearing Grid suits
71
That's fifty percent of the world's population
72
The result will be amazing
73
Everyone who experiences the concert
74
Will slip out of their suit and come to the show
75
They will be drawn to it
76
This will produce the biggest live concert audience in history
