Lyrics Man In Chains - Live from the N.E.C. - Spandau Ballet

I抳e only myself to blame,
Now that I抦 tangled up in chains,
So you say, ooh, so you say
Caught in this human cage,
Trapped, and I抦 fired up with rage
And somebody抯 got to pay
I can never talk about it,
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
Love on a thin white line,
Love that was just a waste of time,
Oh, not anymore
I can feel it coming at me,
I can feel it coming like the wind
But, I抦 locked away and I抦 bound to stay,
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
I only pray that before I die,
Just like a phoenix I will rise and fly
Tell me who抯 to blame,
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
Dragging this ball and chain,
Oh, how long can I take this pain?
But somebody has to try, yeah
Oh, I can feel the pressure on me,
I can feel it taking me from the start
Sticks and stones will smash my bones,
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
I only pray that before I die,
Just like a phoenix I will rise and fly
Tell me who抯 to blame,
Oh, I抦 a man, now I抦 a man in chains
I can never talk about it,
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
I only pray that before I die,
Just like a phoenix I will rise and fly
Tell me who抯 to blame,
Oh, I抦 a man, now I抦 a man in chains
