Number One

Gentle Giant · I Lost My Head (The Chrysalis Years 1975-1980) [2012]

You walk in here, and it seems you think

You own the place

You ruin the sinks and you write on the wall

After all the consideration given you,

I thought you would be grateful,

But no, you're not at all



What can I do, what can I do, I've tried

What can I say, do it my way

Don't you forget, never forget,

I'm Number One, yes, I'm Number One

Number One, and you're still no one



You say you're angry,

It doesn't make much sense to me

You're paying your rent,

And at least you've got a job

I've explained all the sacrifices offered you

You take them without thanks,

I forget that you're still slobs



What can I do, what can I do, I've tried

What can I say, do it my way

Don't you forget, never forget,

I'm Number One, yes, I'm Number One

Number One, and you're still no one
