"Power (Strength In Numbers)" lyrics - TOM COCHRANE

Look - up on the building
See a silhouette
Crowd looks hungry
Because he ain't jumped yet.
Man up on the tower,
Looks big up there
He's got something extra
I wonder if he's scared

Come on, come on
Come on, Turn it on
Turn it on, come on
Power... (Power)
Power... (Power)
Power... (Power)
Power... (Power)

Is he turning on us?
Is he turning?
You can't see his eyes now
Bet that they're burning
Are we among them?
There's strength in their numbers
Can't even hear us
There's too many others

What's he keep saying?
They're not even listening
Is he a poor man?
Why don't we listen?
It's invisible
You can't even touch it
If I was a wise man
I'd have spoke up

Come on, come on
Come on, Turn it on
Turn it on, come on
Turn it on, turn it on
Turn it on, come on
Turn it on, come on
Turn it on, turn it on
Turn it on, turn it on
Power... Power...
Power... Power...

People do some strange things
When they're all together
They wouldn't even dream of (Power)
By themselves (Power)
If I was a brave man (Power)
I'd surely said something (Power)
I can't even sleep on it (Power)
'Cause it's all used up (All used up)
Power... (Power)
Power... (Power)
Power... quarter to twelve (Power)
Power... (Power)
