I remember you Close the back gate behind you Say goodbye, watch the river running by you Hear the whistle blow As you stand to go Leaving everything behind you Don't wanna be a factory man Don't wanna be a part of someone's plan Spending your life just chained to the machine I remember you there Standing alone, at the top of the stair, with your broken heart You were holding it in your hand Hear the whistle blow You need to know Whatever it is That keeps you here Don't wanna be a factory man Don't wanna be a part of someone's plan Spending your life just chained to the machine Well day after endless day You labour your life away And all the more you give it seems The more they take away Hear the whistle blow For you need to know Whatever it is That keeps you here Don't wanna be a factory man Don't wanna be a part of someone's plan Spending your life just chained to the machine Don't wanna be a factory man Don't wanna be a part of someone's plan Spending your life just chained to the machine Yeah, that's someone else's dream, yeah Don't wanna be a factory man
