(kirsty maccoll/pete glenister) I was born and I was bred I was reared and I was fed Moved into the neighbourhood Where I was bad and I was good I fixed things for people there I took them out I don't know where I coloured in their lives to give them outlines I walked before I'll walk again I'll walk along a line of men And walk into the lion's den I think you know but you won't say Just what it is makes life this way But I'm not going to take this lying down Reach for the stars retch for the earth We took the earth and made it worse And there was never any doubt We ate it up we spat it out And still we love to say we did it our way On this voyage of discovery I'm blinded by the things I see I've seen before I'll see again I'll look along a line of men And fall into the lion's den Now you can pray your head is bared And I'm not saying I'm not scared But I'm not going to take this lying down I think you know but you won't say Just what it is makes life this way But I'm not going to take this lying down
