Off the Grid - Abney Park

I unplugged my brain

Unjacked my psyche, I’ve

Stopped being crazy but I’m

One of very few;

I won’t

Sell my freedom for

Things I never wanted,

Won’t be a slave, with any luck

Those days are through--

I’ve packed my bags

Brought back my pride

I’d rather live in rags

Than throw my dreams aside!

I’ve packed my bags

Brought back my pride

I’d rather live in rags

Hey hey hey hey

Doot doo doo doo doo doo

I was told that it’s

Safest to bury your

Dreams with commitments that

Never were your muse,

But how safe is it To make a man with

Dreams beyond what

He’s allowed to choose?

I’ve packed my bags

And brought back my pride

I’d rather live in rags

Than throw my dreams aside!

I’ve packed my bags

Brought back my pride

I’d rather live in rags

Hey hey hey hey

Doot doo doo doo doo doo

Some nobody sits in a Beige carpet box, doing

Nothing to buy something

He will never use, well I would

Be someone

Instead of buy something…

Hey hey hey hey

Doot doo doo doo doo doo
