24 Hours

[Hook]

I said, "No, I'm tired", they say, "Yes, you can"

Push me to the fire, they say that you're the man

I said, "No, I'm tired", they say, "Yes, you can"

Push me to the fire, they say that you're the man

[Post-Hook]

Let's toast to the new age supermen

And fly around the globe

And leave home, to do shows

Our twenty-four hours is a week for most

Toast to the new age supermen

And fly around the globe

And leave home, to do shows

Our twenty-four hours is a week for most

[Verse 1]

I gotta smile even when I feel let down

I just gotta live ready (Woo)

I put the world on my shoulders before I left out

Shit's way too heavy

"How dare you be tired, let alone stressed out? (Yeah)

Man, you're on the telly"

"And how can you moan about rollin' around?"

"Ain't you got a Bentley?" (Shh)

Let me show you where I get lost

When I get picked up then I jet off

And I get picked up when I get off

Straight to the hotel like "Get washed

Do interviews and press shots"

Then I hit the venue get my "Wretch" on

Feelin' hungry, lookin' at the restaurant

But we gotta rush for our flight, gotta get gone

[Interlude 1]

You're the man, you're the man, you're the man, you're the man

[Verse 2]

Then I get picked up when I get off

And I do a few phoners with some new press

Trying to sound alive when I feel like death

Don't know what I need more, food or rest?

Bein' rude ain't Wretch, so I've gotta take a picture

I'm with y'all when I ain't even with y'all

Said "Follow me back", my only problem with that

Is that my battery's flat, there's no Twitter

No Twitter, no BB

In the back of the car, the new ET

I wanna phone home, believe me

But I can hear in your tone that you need me

It's ironic that I spoke to the sun

Before I spoke to my son

Looks like I'm gettin' scared of familiar voices

And that's somethin' that I'm really annoyed with

It's like the things that seem to mean most

Just end up one of my a million choices

So how do I avoid this

Without hearing your pointers?

[Hook]

I said, "No, I'm tired", they say, "Yes, you can"

Push me to the fire, they say that you're the man

I said, "No, I'm tired", they say, "Yes, you can"

Push me to the fire, they say that you're the man

[Interlude 2]

You're the man, you're the man, you're the man, you're the man, you're the man

Yo, Wretch, wake up

Wake up, we're here

[Verse 3]

That sleep in the car felt like a few hours

It was just a few minutes (Woo)

And I reach for my Red Bull to get some power

But I forgot it was finished

Went straight into makeup to get that powder (Yeah)

For that fake star image

Now go look alive, then they throw me my mic

And I'ma straight up kill it

Ladies say I got gorgeous cheeks

Smile for the pictures before I leave

My head's been spinning since four or three

So after the flash I see four of me

The whole team's spirits like a cord I see

Just find the first place and it's soon on me

One more PA, then we all can sleep

That twenty-four hours was an awesome week

[Bridge]

(Oh-eeh-oh-eeh-oh-eeh-oh)

That twenty-four hours was an awesome week

(Oh-eeh-oh-eeh-oh-eeh-oh)

That twenty-four hours was an awesome week

[Outro]

Welcome to the darkest alley

Where happiness seems so saddenin'

How are you standing?

Welcome to the darkest alley

Happiness seems so saddenin'

How are you standing?

The hunger's gonna feed you action
