Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All my life I've been alone, but I've never really cared
Just a face inside a crowd, a stranger everywhere
Everyone I've ever known has disappointed me
I live and breathe only for me
[Verse 2]
No one's ever been inside the wall surrounding me
I depend on me myself to keep me company
No one cares about me, so I take good care of me
I'm in a world all on my own
[Verse 3]
Oh, a one man band plays all alone
He plays to a song of his own (Yes, he does, yes, he does, yes, he does)
Oh, a one man band plays all alone
He plays to a song of his own
[Verse 4]
And I'm so self-contented that it sometimes frightens me
I can do most anything with no one helping me
I'm concerned in everything that's for the good of me
No one but me cares about me
[Verse 5]
And each man is the master of his own destiny
And I can surely best determine what is right for me
If I had the chance to change my life, I wouldn't dare
Doing okay living this way
[Verse 6]
Oh, a one man band plays all alone
He plays to a song of his own (Yes, he does, yes, he does, yes, he does)
Oh, a one man band plays all alone
He plays to a song of his own
[Verse 7]
Oh, a one man band plays all alone
He plays to a song of his own, yes, he does, yes, he does, yes, he does
Oh, a one man band plays all alone
He plays to a song of his own (Yes, he does, yes, he does, yes, he does)
[Verse 8]
Oh, a one man band plays all alone
He plays to a song of his own, yes, he does, yes, he does, yes, he does
Oh, a one man band plays all alone
He plays to a song of his own
