Take It Like a Man

[Verse 1]

When you won't go along

Some will feel like you can't find your way

Heaven knows

Heaven knows, I've seen it all before (Woah-oh)

Now don't get me wrong

I've seen many a life gone astray

When someone goes

All your bows won't make it any better, so let it go

[Chorus]

Shut up and take it like a man (Woah-oh)

You need us to get a life (Woah-oh)

For your own good we'll take you by the hand (Woah-oh)

'Cause you need a little more

[Verse 2]

Maybe no one will say it

Maybe no one's aware it goes on

All I know

All I know it's like going off the deep end (Woah-oh)

Could you make a decision?

Could you think for yourself and go on?

Everyone knows

Everyone knows you've got to fit into the mainstream so save your woes

[Chorus]

Shut up and take it like a man (Woah-oh)

You need us to get a life (Woah-oh)

For your own good we'll take you by the hand (Woah-oh)

'Cause you need a little more

[Bridge]

Close your eyes

Look away now

Make believe while you can

[Chorus]

Shut up and take it like a man (Woah-oh)

You need us to run your life (Woah-oh)

For your own good we'll take you by the hand (Woah-oh)

'Cause you need a little more

(Woah-woah-oh)

[Outro]

So you'd best go along

Don't let on if you can't find your way

Many more

Many more do it for you

Because heaven knows

Heaven knows, it's like playing with fire

Your life's a throw
