Gary Numan - The Image Is Lyrics
I intrude on patience
I intrude on young hearts
I intrude on all such things
That can take you by surprise
Time and time again
I've no welcome for you
I've no welcome for talk
I've no welcome in my house
I've tried too long you know
Time and time again
Oh look there's a man inside
The head's not the museum it's supposed to be
We sleep with machines that breathe
We're all so sincere
I'll sing a song from the film that broke your heart
Oh look at the smile that cracks
Tomorrow we'll be civilized
And buy the whole world clothes
We don't believe in you
We're specialized mechanics in repairing the bitch
You bounce around my head
You say it's a little but I'm sure it's OK

Gary Numan The Image Is Comments
Best song on the album, beautiful melody, lyrics, and sax!
the best Numan song ever written...should never have been a B side back in 82, Numan finally came to his senses and released the B sides from all albums...masterclass track
first heard this in1988, while working in the uk from NZ, someone I worked with knew a guy who was selling all his numan material for £50,i bet he is kicking himself now, and why this wasn't on the original album, god only knows, but to this day I still think this is in my top 5 of numans tracks ever
This album is at number 2 in the album chart amazing lets hope it gets to number1
Best Gary Numan song ever!
Brilliant. NUMAN IS!
Possibly the best Numan song ever ??
THIS SONG WAS IN MY DREAM LAST NIGHT AND IVE NOT HEARD IT IN YEARS
something created but created in someone elses image ,... my opinion about this song , a man made man ? could be , lyrics below .
I intrude on patience
I intrude on young hearts
I intrude on all such things
That can take you by surprise
Time, time again
So......
I’ve no welcome for you
I’ve no welcome for talk
I’ve no welcome in my house
I’ve tried to love, you know?*
Time, time again
Oh look there’s a man inside
The heads not the museum it’s supposed to be*
We sleep with machines that breathe
And some even have names, “The Executive Dream”
We’re all substance here *
I’ll sing a song and look and that broke your heart
Oh look at the smile that cracks
Tomorrow we’ll be civilized
And burn the world down
We don’t believe in you
We’re specialised mechanics and repair him to bits
You dance around my head
You say it’s illegal but I’m sure it’s OK*
Yeah, but what does it _mean_ , man?
Nice job! I hear a few of these differently. Still it's really hard to decipher these lyrics and I've been trying for 35 years. How about these-- my corrections in capital letters:
"BUT IT'S not the museum it's supposed to be"
"We're all SO SINCERE"
"I'll sing a song OF LOVE AND THEN GRAB your heart"
"I'M SORRY it's illegal but I'm sure it's O.K."
We're all so sincere, I'll sing a song from the film that broke your heart. Specialised mechanics just repairing the bitch.
you say it's illegal but I'm sure it's ok
Jesus? Please appear and enlighten.
Oh look there's a man inside....
Well said Lee and Simon!
