The ninth track of the album, its melody returns the listeners to the dystopian ambience where “Spirits in the Material World” left off.
It was originally chosen to be the first single (possibly by A&M staff), but apparently Sting vetoed.
“Omegaman” was a really strong piece. A&M wanted to...
[Verse 1]
The night came down, jungle sounds were in my ears
City screams are all I've heard in twenty years
The razor edge of night, it cuts into my sleep
I sit upon the edge now, shall I make that leap?
[Chorus]
I'm the Omegaman
I'm the Omegaman
[Verse 2]
The sky's alive with turned on television sets
I walk the streets and seek another vision yet
The echo makes me turn to see that last frontier
The edge of time closes down as I disappear
[Chorus]
I'm the Omegaman
I'm the Omegaman
[Chorus]
I'm the Omegaman
I'm the Omegaman
[Bridge]
Always talking to myself
[Verse 3]
The time that's best is when surroundings fade away
The presence of another world comes close to me
It's time for me to throw away this paper knife
I'm not alone in reaching for a perfect life
[Chorus]
I'm the Omegaman
I'm the Omegaman
[Outro]
I'm so tired of the Omegaman
I'm so tired of the Omegaman
I'm so tired of the Omegaman
I'm so tired of the Omegaman
I'm so tired of the Omegaman
I'm so tired of the Omegaman
I'm so tired of the Omegaman
