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 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

Everything I do's been done before

Ev'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 I'm to begin

The life that I'm assigned

A life that's been lived before

A thousand times

I have a feelin' deep inside

That something is missin'

There's a feelin' in my soul

And I can't help wishin'

That one day I'll discover

That we're livin' a lie

And I'll tell the whole world

The reasons why

But until then, all I know is what I need to know

Everything I do's been done before

Ev'ry idea in my head

Someone else has said

At the end of my life is an open door
