Out On An Island Lyrics - Cock Sparrer

Everybody's got a number tattooed on their soul 

And the time's gonna come boy, 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 

And 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 

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 

You just gotta remember you gotta toe the line 

So dont go looking over your shoulder for me 

[Chorus] 

Every number's a hero and every hero's a son 

But every son's just a number when the battles begun 

So dont go waiting on the corner for me 

[Chorus x2]
