Lyrics
There s always a front and a back of the line, taking our place in the queue
you could stand on bridges
Is that your name on the score, for any words that you have to say
They had you on their system, adding our names to the spreadsheet and
I walk this world as a number, the mastermind dons of the east-end gangsters
Is that your name on the score, there s always a front and a back of the line
I walk this world as a number, the president of your local round table club, the escher staircase reprise
Adding our names to the spreadsheet and, they could wait
the promises of kings
Some ladder to climb, the man who represents you on the local council The, taking our place in the queue
Look down on the cheating and the con-men, an elping hand, the president of your local round table club
But we sold them, the escher staircase
The mastermind dons of the east-end gangsters, in the churches
The promises of kings, fools and politicians, but when you do
I walk this world as a number, look down on the cheating and the con-men
Filtering the ones who will rule, or we could take the high road
The mastermind dons of the east-end gangsters, feel the roughness of the sands of time in your hands again
the mastermind dons of the east-end gangsters
You d been alive for thirty minutes when you filled in your first form, they could wait
our dreams stand tall and our hopes still flare with youth
an elping hand
take on board the lying commercials
and they tick me off and file me and save me to their drives
While you sit contemplating the queue and the problems that face your world, the youth clubs and schools
Wait in line forever, so by the time you d finished schooling, from collecting stamps to national government
And they filed away the papers and you took your place in the queue, for a place to call your own The, the youth clubs and schools
Is that your name on the score, through the years of quiet childhood they plotted out your fate The, you just find yourself moving one place up in the queue
You might never hit the goal that you were hoping for, but be honest Place, there s always a front and a back of the line
we sold them all for the price of a b.m.w
Or we could do as we re told, they had you on their system, i walk this world as a number
