Out On An Island

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Everybody's got a number tattooed on their soul And the time's gonna come, boys, when your number's called Everybody gets a uniform and a hut to live in They give you your rank, you tell 'em your next of kin There's no escape for the likes of you, my friend [Chorus] But I'm gonna be out on an island In the middle of the bright blue sea Out on an island Where nobody's gonna bother looking for me [Verse 2] Everybody gets the training, in the wind and the rain Ten miles cross country, driving you insane Everybody gets to jump the hoop and march in time Yeah, you just gotta remember you gotta toe the line So don't go looking over your shoulder for me [Chorus] 'Cause I'm gonna be out on an island In the middle of the bright blue sea Out on an island Where nobody's gonna bother looking for me [Verse 3] Every number is a hero and every hero's a son But every son's just a number when the battle's begun So don't go waiting on the corner for me [Chorus] 'Cause I'm gonna be out on an island In the middle of the bright blue sea Out on an island Where nobody's gonna bother looking for me Yeah, I'm gonna be out on an island In the middle of the bright blue sea Out on an island Where nobody's gonna bother looking for me [Outro] Yeah, I'm gonna be out on an island Out on an island Out on an island Out on an island Out on an island Out on an island
