All my life I've been alone But I've never really cared Just a face inside a crowd A stranger everywhere
Everyone I've ever known Has disappointed me I live and breathe only for me
No one's ever been inside The wall surrounding me I depend on me myself To keep me company
No one cares about me So I take good care of me I'm in a world all of my own
(CHORUS) Oh, a one man band plays all alone He plays to a song of his own Yes, he does, yes, he does Yes, he does Oh, a one man band plays all alone He plays to a song of his own
I'm so self contented That it sometimes frightens me I can do most anything With no one helping me
I'm concerned in everything That's for the good of me No one but me cares about me
And each man is the Master of his own destiny And I can surely best determine What is right for me
If I had the chance To change my life I wouldn't dare Doing okay living this way
