they're trying hard to put me in my place
and that is why i gotta keep running
the future's mine and it's no disgrace
cos in the end the past means nothing
you tell me i'm free then you tie me down
and from my chains i think it's a pity
what did it cost you to wear my crown
you don't like me so why don't you admit it
d'you feel a little down today?
bet you ain't got much to say?
you're gonna miss me when i'm not there
and you know i don't care you know i don't care
as we beg and steal and borrow
life is hit and miss and this
i hope, i think, i know
and if i ever hear thenames you call
if i stumble catch me when i fall
cos baby after all you'll never forget my name
