Got out of bed, with no where to go As I comb my hair, I didn't know What I would do today to pa** the time As I left the house, I left hope behind As I hit the street, no sun greeted me No smiles on the faces of the people I meet Here's the ride step inside, plenty of time to make the line Life is a line, take a number Just one big line, that's all it is Life is a line, just take a number Just one big line, that's all it is Life... is a line Life... is a line, just one big line Life is a line, take a number Just one big line, that's all it is Life is a line, just take a number Just one big line, I tell it like it is Life is... a line Life.. the line Life is a line, take a number Life is a line, that's all it is Life is a line, take a number Life is a line, take your place The end of the line if you please I go into town to the eagles nest I vanish in with all the rest I got into line, and waited to see What the bureaucrat would do with me Then his ice cold eyes foretold my fate I knew I had arrived an hour late: "What's that you say? No jobs today? I see you next time right here in the line." Life is a line, take a number Life is a line, take your place Life is a line, just take a number Life is a line, take your place
