Manchild

Is it the pain of the drinkingOr the Sunday sinking feeling?The car never seems to workWhen it's late your girlfriend's on a dateAnd the hero with her in your dreamIn your sleep seemed like youTurn around and ask yourselfTurn around and ask yourselfManchild, will you ever win?Manchild, look at the state you're inCould you go undercoverAnd sell your brand new lover? (Could you?)Be someone else for a night?Maybe someone else will love youYou'd sell your soul for a tacky songLike the one you hear on the radioTurn around and ask yourselfTurn around and ask yourselfManchild, will you ever win?Manchild, look at the state you're inManchild, he will make you cryManchild, manchild, manchildFrom Monday down to FridayYou're working on another man's carOr is it in the factory?It doesn't matter where you areJust turn around and ask yourself, is this communication?Accentuate the positive and give some illustrationSee, manchild, you're no one, I'll turn the microphone onControl communication when I'm kicking it and so onTo the point where I need the air that I breatheInto an audience that's waiting and ecstatic to receiveFor the meantime another mean rhyme, I keep on saying itI know what the time is and the crowd will keep on playing itThrough the speaker boxes. Loud's my diagnosis'Cause I believe in miracles and words in steady dosesEnough R-E-S-P-E and C-TRespect yourself, express, no stress, the mike is easyJust believe that all you need is the air that you breathe(And ask yourself)Manchild, will you ever win?Manchild, look at the state you're inManchild, he will make you cryManchild, manchild, manchildHe's the apple of your eyeOnce bitten, twice shyWhy don't you bite me againJust take it in right and go tell your friendAre you ready for the words? I'll turn the microphone onA figure of speech to reach you at the back and so onThe style I'm stimulating dance floorsRaise your body temperature now and this demands forPower in the ampYou know loud's my diagnosis'Cause I believe in miracles, words in heavy doses
