Traffic were an English rock band, formed in Birmingham. The group was formed in April 1967 by Steve Winwood, Jim Capaldi, Chris Wood and Dave Mason. They began as a psychedelic rock group and diversified their sound through the use of instruments such as keyboards like the Mellotron and harpsichord, sitar, and various reed instruments, and by incorporating jazz and improvisational techniques in their music. Their first three singles were "Paper Sun", "Hole in My Shoe", and "Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush". more »

In a Shanghai noodle factory
Place where I once used to be
No where doing nothing
People there were made of steel
Tiny cogs in one big wheel
Turning never learning

Had to make a break
Soon I had to wake up feeling stronger, feeling stronger
On my island of dreams, with impossible schemes

In a Shanghai noodle factory
Place where I once used to be
No where doing nothing
Villagers were plastic men
Packed like roosters in a pen
Crowing, never knowing

Had to make a break
Knew I couldn't fake it any longer
Everything just aches
Soon I'd have to wake up feeling stronger, feeling stronger
On my island of dreams, with impossible schemes
