Carnal Grief

I Wanna Be Somebody

Carnal Grief


You say you don't wanna run and hide 
A face that no-one knows 
And everyone ya meet, you're gonna show 
You're nobody's slave, nobody's chains are holdin' you 
You hold your fist up high, 
And rule the zoo 

Oh, you just got to be 
Up high where the whole world's watchin me 
Cos I, I got the guts to be somebody 
To cry out 

I wanna be somebody, 
Be somebody soon 
I wanna be somebody 
Be somebody too 

You say you don't wanna starve 
Or take the table crumbs that fall 
You don't wanna beg or plead at all 
You don't want no nine to five 
Your fingers to the bone 
You don't want the rock piles' bloody stones 

Oh, you just got to be 
Up high where the whole world's watchin me 
Cos I, I got the guts to be somebody 
To cry out
