Something Special Songtext / Lyric

What am I now?

Another boy becoming man

who wants to change

who's not afraid

I've had to run

from boring streets

and bitter priests

from smoking gun

and stern parade

For when you're living on your own

without a girlfriend or a home

people speculate

but I'm much stronger than them

I want to be something special

I want to be something special



Now I play the London game

A hand-to-mouth existence

'til someone calls my name






I want it now

My chance has come

and I will grab it

just to change

the way I am

I understand

the plans you make

the risks you take

the way you can

when you're a man

And if I sometimes have to do

the things I've always wanted to

I won't shy away

Because I'm much harder than that

I want to be something special

I want to be something special



Now I play the London game

A hand-to-mouth existence

'til someone calls my name
