So you say, ooh, so you say
Trapped, and I抦 fired up with rage
And somebody抯 got to pay
I can never say what I want to say
So I抣l take your tip and I抣l bite my lip
And hope it goes away
You say I抦 a man of straw
Well, baby, I抦 gonna break your law
Then it抯 war, ooh, yes it抯 war
Oh, not anymore
I can feel it coming like the wind
So no one can get in
I抦 a man in chains, I抦 a man in chains
Oh, I抦 a man in chains, I抦 a man in chains
Just like a phoenix I will rise and fly
Oh, I抦 a man, now I抦 a man in chains
There must be a reason why
You抮e pulling the wool down on my eyes
It抯 a lie, it抯 a lie
Oh, how long can I take this pain?
But somebody has to try, yeah
I can feel it taking me from the start
But never break my heart
I抦 a man in chains, I抦 a man in chains
Oh, I抦 a man in chains, I抦 a man in chains
Just like a phoenix I will rise and fly
Oh, I抦 a man, now I抦 a man in chains
Oh, I can never say what I want to say
So I抣l take your tip and I抣l bite my lip
And hope it goes away
I抦 a man in chains, I抦 a man in chains
Oh, I抦 a man in chains, I抦 a man in chains
Just like a phoenix I will rise and fly
Oh, I抦 a man, now I抦 a man in chains
