lyrics

"i'm not just a part to your whole.
i'm an individual.

i am heart and soul.
i'm an individual."

adam says he has a free will
but he never thought of where those words come from
and he says pretty much the same things as everyone

"i pick out my own clothes.
i'm an individual.

i blow the snot out of my nose.
i'm an individual."

adam says he has a free will
but he never could figure out where that snot comes from
and he has pretty much the same snot as everyone

inside his cell inside its organ inside its body inside its family inside its country
inside its planet by a medium-sized star

"i don't fit any part of your mold.
i'm an individual.

i can live on my own.
i'm an individual."

adam says he has a free will
but he never thought of where those thoughts come from
and he's pretty much just the same as everyone

adam says he has a free will
but he never could figure out where that snot comes from
and he has pretty much the same snot as everyone

the same snot as everyone inside his cell
inside its organ inside its body
inside its family inside its country
inside its planet by a medium-sized star

and he knows that nothing he could ever do
could make a dent in the path of the universe
as far as anyone could tell

and the order from a self righteous lord that the humans will have another war
doesn't matter much what you do or what you say
or the fact that we're all the same

'cause it's happened 100 million times before
and it'll probably happen 100 billion more
but adam still believes that someday
he'll achieve override

"i'm the only one of my kind i've ever known.
i am the original.
i can go wherever i want to go.
i'm an individual.
i can do it on my own.

i'm driving. i'm driving today.
i'm driving. i'm driving this way,"

said adam, the great big star.
