[Verse 1]
I take my card and I stand in line
To make a buck, I work overtime
Dear Sir letters keep coming in the mail
I work my back 'til it's racked with pain
The boss can't even recall my name
I show up late and I'm docked, it never fails
[Bridge]
I feel like just another
Spoke in a great big wheel
Like a tiny blade of grass
In a great big field
(Whoa)
[Verse 2]
To workers, I'm just another drone
To Ma Bell, I'm just another phone
I'm just another statistic on a sheet
To teachers, I'm just another child
To IRS, I'm another file
I'm just another consensus on the street
[Bridge]
Gonna cruise out of this city
Head down to the sea
Gonna shout out at the ocean
Hey, it's me
[Chorus]
And I feel like a number
Feel like a number
Feel like a stranger
A stranger in this land
I feel like a number
I'm not a number
I'm not a number
Dammit I'm a man
I said I'm a man (Ow! ow! ow! ow!)
[Piano Solo and Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Gonna cruise out of this city
Head down to the sea
Gonna shout out at the ocean
Hey, it's me
[Chorus]
And I feel like a number
Feel like a number
Feel like a stranger
A stranger in this land
I feel like a number
I'm not a number
I'm not a number
Dammit, I'm a man
I feel like a number
Feel like a number
Feel like a number
[Outro]
Hey!
I feel like it
I feel
Feel like it
Feel like it
Whoa
I feel like it
I feel like it
I feel like it
