My Own Way Lyrics

I saw you at the airace yesterday
April showers get out of my way
Fear of flying, no, not me

I'm never bothered what you say
Someone's kid just lives for today
It ain't your problem anyway

'Cos I've got my own way
I can find my own way
'Cos I've got my own way

No. 1 public figure, what a pain
Just puts another rattle in your brain
Take another green, but it's not the same

Now you're on the Sandlane everyday
Dancing with the bulls in any old way
Running like a fox to keep up with me

I'm on 45th between 6th and Broadway
7Up between 6th and Broadway.

I love this song, the unintelligible stuff in the end. But I hear it's the only song Duran Duran regrets writing.

Cover art for My Own Way lyrics by Duran Duran

the unintelligible stuff, as you call it, is a reference to a real nightclub at that address. It is now defunct

Cover art for My Own Way lyrics by Duran Duran

This is one of my favorites - its basically been my theme song for a long time. I dont see why DD would regret writing this one so I doubt that information. I could see them regretting that song in its first incarnation (with the lofty string music), the Rio version as well as the Kerschenbaum remix are so much better! I have been struggling with this line: Dancing with the bulls in any old way...anyone know?

Actually The " I'm on 45th between 6th and Broadway 7Up between 6th and Broadway. "

Is Directions to A Club They have been To ..I read It

Cover art for My Own Way lyrics by Duran Duran

I did happen to find some lyrics to it and listened to it and tried to compare them the only one I would agree with is when Simon says "Gonna put a red streak around this town".

Cover art for My Own Way lyrics by Duran Duran

I think 7up is Simon bragging about his penis being 7 inches long when erect.

The 6th and Broadway is the distance between the woman's legs.

The "45th" is the number of his sexual conquests.

SOMEBODY is so ruled by the Ol' One-Eyed Emperor

Cover art for My Own Way lyrics by Duran Duran

Yes, the lines at the end are directions to a Nightclub in USA which they visited. As for the song its's great basically wanting people to see things from your point of view and wanting your own way.
