5.905 Lyrics

Artist: John Entwistle
Album: Left for Live

Mother was an incubator
Father was the contents
Of a test tube in the icebox
In the factory of birth
My name is 905
And Iâ‚¬â„¢ve just become alive
Iâ‚¬â„¢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
Everything I doâ‚¬â„¢s been done before
Evâ‚¬â„¢ry sentence in my head
Someone else has said
At the end of my life is an open door

Automatically defrosted
My manhood came on time
I became a man
I left the ICE school behind
And now Iâ‚¬â„¢m to begin
The life that Iâ‚¬â„¢m assigned
A life thatâ‚¬â„¢s been lived before
A thousand times

I have a feelinâ‚¬â„¢ deep inside
That something is missinâ‚¬â„¢
Thereâ‚¬â„¢s a feelinâ‚¬â„¢ in my soul
And I canâ‚¬â„¢t help wishinâ‚¬â„¢
That one day Iâ‚¬â„¢ll discover
That weâ‚¬â„¢re livinâ‚¬â„¢ a lie
And Iâ‚¬â„¢ll tell the whole world
The reasons why

But until then, all I know is what I need to know
Everything I doâ‚¬â„¢s been done before
Evâ‚¬â„¢ry idea in my head
Someone else has said
At the end of my life is an open door
