Number One

If I was to close my eyes when I crossed at the lights and died
Would I leave a legacy, or just a corpse behind
I've tried to build an empire with no dollar signs in my eyes
I'm tired of dreaming dreams that won't come to life

I'm no one
But I used to be someone, somewhere
I thought I knew something
But I guess I know nothing, nowhere

Working on hardly, what's it for?
I'm not givin' up 'til we're number one
Working on hardly, what's it for?
I'm not givin' up 'til we're number one

My life, forever spent irrelevant in time
I'd like to leave a piece of me behind
What is just is, and what was is gone
What will be? Hopefully number one

I'm no one
But I used to be someone, somewhere
I thought I knew something
But I guess I know nothing, nowhere

Working on hardly, what's it for?
I'm not givin' up 'til we're number one
Working on hardly, what's it for?
I'm not givin' up 'til we're number one

Well, I used to work, you'd have to work to live
Now I live to work, cannot believe
Well, I used to work, you'd have to work to live
Now I live to work, cannot believe

Working on, I'll be working on
Working on 'til we're number one
Working on, I'll be working on
Working on 'til we're number one
