Man (From The Back Of The Line) (2012 Bonus Edition)
Lined up, classified, I'm sitting here in this room A patient biding his time Seems like my absence here would have made no difference
Oh! Yes, yes (Of course!) – I can wait If not tonight I will come On another day I put my minor life in your major hands
CHORUS 'Cause I'm a Man from the back of the line Know for sure I'm worth nothing, I'm a waste of your time Don't bother yourself looking into my eyes
'Cause I'm a Man from the back of the line Do my best to stay unnoticed since I'm always so shy I have no friends as I'm scared to go out and try to find
People tend to forget My name but that's alright! I excuse them as I know for many people it might Be inconceivably hard to remember such a rare name as John
It's so fancy nowadays to stand aside the crowd Put a quote in every answer, claim you never back down But I'm a simple guy And I'm afraid I can't afford that much
CHORUS
Why does everything tend to end So fast, before I even know it began I feel like old blind cat that everyone is sorry for But pass by I need a bit of understanding - ain't too much I'm longing for If I'd be treated like an equal I could probably do more Because to you I look stupid But I was never let to prove otherwise
