|
You say you don't want to run and hide |
|
A face that no one knows |
|
And everyone you meet |
|
You're going to show |
|
You're nobody's slave |
|
Nobody's chains are holding you |
|
You hold your fist up high |
|
And pride too |
|
Oh, you've just go to be |
|
Up high where the |
|
Whole world is watching you and me |
|
Cause I... |
|
I've got the guts to be somebody! |
|
To cry out |
|
I want to be somebody |
|
Be somebody soon |
|
You say you don't want to starve |
|
Well, take the table crumbs and go! |
|
You don't want to take your feed at all? |
|
You don't want no 9 to 5 job |
|
Fingers to the bone |
|
You don't want the rock piles dirty |
|
Go! Oh, you've just got to be... |
|
Up high where the whole world's |
|
Watching you and me |
|
Cause I... |
|
I've got the guts to be somebody! |
|
To cry out |
|
I want to be somebody |
|
Be somebody soon |
|
I want shiny pots |
|
And dirty |
|
And lots of rock and roll |
|
I will live in vain |
|
And die in flames |
|
I'm never getting old |
