Marked for Number Nine

I'm slipping away
Punch in my number
I've got an escape
There you go decked out in black again
Put my life in a jar
Don't put asunder
Bury it out in the yard
Make sure it's wrapped in cellophane

And all the air raid sirens in the street could not drown out my mind
And as far as I can see, there's no deliverance for my kind
I'm slipping away
Outside the boundary
Got a letter today
Like that, I'm on the grid again
Pack my life in a car
Forget about the mobile
Wondering how far
I'm slipping away

Forever I'll be running from this system that enslaves us all
It's all I can imagine for the future, all I can recall
I'm slipping away
I'm marked for number 9
I'm slipping away
I'm marked for number 9
