Lyrics
A cog in the machine
A cog in the machine
Just a cog
Out in the open
Facing the weather day by day
There's no precaution
No protection against the rain
And it comes without warning
Like a black sky in the morning
And we all need an island in the sun
Coz we were born to be free, wild and run around and play
So run away
From the ones who make you sit and stare all day
At a lifeless screen
Just a cog
A cog in the machine
I've spent most of my life
Bent over backwards for other people
It's left me shaken
I've questioned my faith
But i still believe
All things will turn out as they should
Like the sun rise in the morning
Oh oh
And we all need an island in the sun
Coz we were born to be free, wild and run around and play
So run away
From the ones who make you sit and stare all day
At a lifeless screen
Just a cog
A cog in the machine
(Is this a life for anyone?)
A cog in the machine
(To just keep turning till your done?)
A cog in the machine
(We need that island in the sun)
A cog in the machine
(We must be free, wild and run)
Just a cog
A cog
The log for their fires
The copper in their wires
The tread in their tyres
You wear out and expire
Before your use by date
