I’m a Man

[Verse 1] Laid here with the advertising sliding past my eyes Like cartoons from other people's lives I start to wonder what it takes to be a man, mm Well, I learned to drink and I learned to smoke And I learned to tell a dirty joke Oh, if that's all there is, then there's no point for me [Chorus] Oh, so please can I ask just why we're alive? 'Cause all that you do seems such a waste of time And if you hang around too long, you'll be a man Tell me 'bout it Your car can get up to a hundred and ten You've nowhere to go, but you'll go there again And nothing ever makes no difference to a man [Verse 2] So you stumble into town and hold your stomach in Show them what you've got, though they've seen everything Yeah, you're a beauty, but they've seen your type before You've got no need, but still you want So go and book that restaurant The wine will flow and then you'll just fly away [Chorus] Oh, so please can I ask just why we're alive? 'Cause all that you do seems such a waste of time And if you hang around too long you'll be a man Tell me 'bout it Your car can go up to a hundred and ten You've nowhere to go but you'll go there again And nothing ever makes no difference to a man [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Oh, tell me 'bout it And please can I ask just why we're alive? 'Cause all that you do seems such a waste of time And if you hang around too long you'll be a man Oh tell, c'mon, tell me 'bout it Your car can get up to a hundred and ten You've nowhere to go but you'll go there again And nothing ever makes no difference to a man [Outro] To a man To a man To a man That's what I am
