Lyrics

2000 Man

[Verse 1]

Well, my name is a number, a piece of plastic film

And I'm growing funny flowers in my little window sill

[Refrain]

Don’t you know, I'm the 2,000 man

And my kids, they just don't understand me at all

[Verse 2]

Well, my wife still respects me, I really misuse her

I am having an affair with a random computer

[Refrain]

Don’t you know, I'm the 2,000 man

And my kids, they just don't understand me at all

[Chorus]

Oh daddy, proud of your planet

Oh mummy, proud of your sun

Oh daddy, proud of your planet

Oh mummy, proud of your sun

[Bridge]

Oh daddy, your brain's still flashin'

Like it did when you were young

Or do you come down crashin'

Seein' all the things you'd done?

All was a big put on

[Chorus]

Oh daddy, proud of your planet

Oh mummy, proud of your sun

Oh daddy, proud of your planet

Oh mummy, proud of your sun

Oh daddy, proud of your planet

Oh mummy, proud of your sun

Oh daddy, proud of your planet

Oh mummy, proud of your sun

[Outro]

And you know who's the 2000 man

And your kids, they just won't understand you at all
