|
Once there was a man who decided he knew everything |
|
Once there was a book that he threw in my face |
|
Once there was an angry mob that marched |
|
Up and down the street |
|
Don't ya know they all called my name |
|
What do they want from me? |
|
Chorus |
|
What do they want from me? |
|
What do they want from me? |
|
What do they want from a poor boy who |
|
Can't believe |
|
They want to fill the void |
|
They want to fill the empty spaces |
|
But i won't let them consume me |
|
With the rest of the lifeless faces |
|
Once there was a little girl |
|
Who thought that she was a queen |
|
And she thought the world was a playground |
|
Filled with sand |
|
So with all her friends she created a fantasy |
|
They all come to me with their demands |
|
What do they want from me? |
|
Chorus |
|
Every little thing is a piece of a larger thing |
|
Ever little fish is a tyrant of the sea |
|
Every little atom is a master of his family |
|
Every single piece calls my name |
|
What do they want from me? |
|
Chorus |
