905

Mother was an incubator Father was the contents Of a test tube in the ice box In the factory of birth My name is 905, And I've just become alive I'm the newest populator Of the planet we call Earth In suspended animation My childhood passed me by If I speak without emotion Then you know the reason why Knowledge of the universe Was fed into my mind As my adolescent body Left its puberty behind And everything I know is what I need to know And everything I do's been done before Every sentence in my head Someone else has said At each end of my life is an open door Automatically defrosted When manhood came on time I became a man I left the "ice school" behind Now I'm to begin The life that I'm assigned A life that's been used before A thousand times I have a feeling deep inside That somethin' is missing It's a feeling in my soul And I can't help wishing That one day I'll discover That we're living a lie And I'll tell the whole world The reason why Well, until then, everything I know is what I need to know And everything I do's been done before Every sentence in my head Someone else has said At each end of my life is an open door --- 905 - The Who
