(Originally performed by W.A.S.P.) You say you don't want to run and hide A face that no one knows And everyone you meet You're going to show You're nobody's slave Nobody's chains are holding you You hold your fist up high And pride too Oh, you've just go to be Up high where the Whole world is watching you and me Cause I... I've got the guts to be somebody! To cry out I want to be somebody Be somebody soon You say you don't want to starve Well, take the table crumbs and go! You don't want to take your feed at all? You don't want no 9 to 5 job Fingers to the bone You don't want the rock piles dirty Go! Oh, you've just got to be... Up high where the whole world's Watching you and me Cause I... I've got the guts to be somebody! To cry out I want to be somebody Be somebody soon I want shiny pots And dirty And lots of rock and roll I will live in vain And die in flames I'm never getting old
