Windowseat kid, I watched their game
Crowds in suits all marched the same
Briefcases swayed, their faces numb
I swore right then: not me. Not one
Skyscraper army—I swore I'd refuse
Now I'm lockstep in their hollow shoes
Suits in a line, tie like a leash
Cut it loose, cut it loose
Glass cage in the sky—I'll break through
Skyscraper army—I won't march for you
Windowless noon, fluorescent bloom
Deadlines chant their mocking tune
Eyes go blank in the monitor's blue
The vow I made drifts out of view
Ooooooohhhhhh
Not me… not one
Skyscraper army—I swore I'd refuse
Now I'm lockstep in their hollow shoes
Suits in a line, tie like a leash
Cut it loose, cut it loose
Glass cage in the sky—I'll break through
Skyscraper army—I won't march for you
Keycard down
Auto reply on
Not me, not one
Not me, not one
Not me, not one
I'm done
I'm done
Skyscraper army—I swore I'd refuse
Now I'm lockstep in their hollow shoes
Suits in a line, tie like a leash
Cut it loose, cut it loose
Glass cage in the sky—I'll break through
Skyscraper army—I won't march for you
Cut it loose! Cut it loose
Not me, not one! I won't march for you
Not me, not one
I broke through
