The Who - 905 lyrics
905
The Who
Mother was an incubator
Mother was an incubator
Father was the contents
Father was the contents
Of a test tube in the ice box
Of a test tube in the ice box
In the factory of birth
In the factory of birth
My name is 905,
My name is 905,
And I?ve just become alive
And I?ve just become alive
I?m the newest populator
I?m the newest populator
Of the planet we call earth
Of the planet we call earth
In suspended animation
In suspended animation
My childhood passed me by
My childhood passed me by
If I speak without emotion
If I speak without emotion
Then you know the reason why
Then you know the reason why
Knowledge of the universe
Knowledge of the universe
Was fed into my mind
Was fed into my mind
As my adolescent body
As my adolescent body
Left it?s puberty behind
Left it?s puberty behind
And everything I know is what I need to know
And everything I know is what I need to know
And everything I do?s been done before
And everything I do?s been done before
Every sentence in my head
Every sentence in my head
Someone else has said
Someone else has said
At each end of my life is an open door
At each end of my life is an open door
Automatically defrosted
Automatically defrosted
When manhood came on time
When manhood came on time
I became a man
I became a man
I left the ?ice school? behind
I left the ice school behind
Now I?m to begin
Now I?m to begin
The life that I?m assigned
The life that I?m assigned
A life that?s been used before
A life that?s been used before
A thousand times
A thousand times
I have a feeling deep inside
I have a feeling deep inside
That somethin? is missing
That somethin? is missing
It?s a feeling in my soul
It?s a feeling in my soul
And I can?t help wishing
And I can?t help wishing
That one day I?ll discover
That one day I?ll discover
That we?re living a lie
That we?re living a lie
And I?ll tell the whole world
And I?ll tell the whole world
The reason why
The reason why
Well, until then, everything I know is what I need to know
Well, until then, everything I know is what I need to know
And everything I do?s been done before
And everything I do?s been done before
Every sentence in my head
Every sentence in my head
Someone else has said
Someone else has said
At each end of my life is an open door
At each end of my life is an open door
