[Verse 1]
I'm the guy at the back with an oar
You won’t find me up front at the helm
I'm not one of the great unwashed
But you could say I'm one of the great overwhelmed
[Chorus]
I’m the face in the crowd
And I do what's allowed
And I'll stand up straight and proud
But only if you do
I'm the face in the crowd
In the sky, I'm a cloud
And I'll sing our song out loud
But only if you do
[Verse 2]
I'm the guy at the desk by the door
You won't see me upstairs with the boss
I’m not one of the left behind
But you could say I’m one of the left out and lost
[Chorus]
I'm the face in the crowd
And I do what’s allowed
And I'll stand up straight and proud
But only if you do
I'm the face in thе crowd
In the sky, I'm a cloud
And I’ll sing our song out loud
But only if you do
[Post-Chorus]
I'm gonna do something (You're gonna do nothing)
I'm gonna gеt somewhere (You're gonna get nowhere)
I'm gonna be someone (You're gonna be no one)
I'm gonna be free (Let's wait and see)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I'm the face in the crowd
And I do what's allowed
And I'll stand up straight and proud
But only if you do
I'm the face in the crowd
In the sky, I'm a cloud
And I'll sing our song out loud
But only if you do
[Post-Chorus]
I'm gonna do something (You're gonna do nothing)
I'm gonna get somewhere (You're gonna get nowhere)
I'm gonna be someone (You're gonna be no one)
I'm gonna be free (Let's wait and see)
I've gotta do something (You're gonna do nothing)
I've gotta get somewhere (You're gonna get nowhere)
I've gotta be someone (You're gonna be no one)
I've gotta be free (Let's wait and see)
