They're trying hard to put me in my place
And that is why I've gotta [bad word] The future is 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 why don't you admit it

I feel a little down today
I know I ain't got much to say
But your gonna miss me when I'm not there
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
If I ever hear the names you call
If I stumble catch me when I fall
Cos baby after all, You'll never forget my name

you've tried hard to put me in my place
And that is why I've gotta [bad word] 
The future's mine and it's no disgrace
Cos in the end the past means nothing

I feel a little down today
Bet you ain't got much to say
who's gonna miss you when you're not there
You know we don't care, You know we don't care

Cos' as we beg and steal and borrow
Life is hit and miss and this
I Hope, I Think, I Know
And if I've ever hear the names you call
and if I stumble catch me when I fall
Cos baby after all, You'll never forget my name
