The Man
Wake on the top of the world
I'm Kevin Bacon in Footloose
I'm taking the roof and I'm raising it
Somewhere in the summer I was fumbling for the words to say
Maybe I'm going to rule the world
I'm throwing out all my pictures away
So the tabloids won't publish them
I will be the winner of a dinner in my honour too
Someday soon on the top of the waves, I'll be floating
Fly to the top of the clouds and I know that
You just said the words that I heard and it made my day
I can't believe that
You said I'm the man
Yeah, you said I'm the man, Yeah
I'm feeling higher than heaven
Aliver than Elvis
I'm getting a ego that's bigger than
everytime you tried to tell me I'm the only guy for you
Maybe I'm gonna go get drunk
I'm going to have another
Buy the house a round don't worry whether I can cover it
Stumble home tomorrow
Try to tell you that I'm still the man
Someday I could tell you all my thoughts
Yeah I could turn and cough and
And I could say that I never meant to piss you off
But I'd never given you a gift like you gave to
Who's the man now?
You said, I'm the man
Yeah, you said I'm the man, Yeah
Somewhere in the summer in the subway we were losing track
Of everything and everyone and everytime we took it back and
You were lying trying buying any time to cut me slack and
Waiting for the paint to dry and trying not to kick my ass
You said I'm the man
Yeah, you said I'm the man, Yeah
Wake on the top of the girl
I'm Kevin Spacey and you you're American Beauty
I'm doing it different than I did before but am I still the man?
Maybe I'm going to eat the world
But then I'll throw up and realize
I ate too much I really should've known
Better but I'll never get another chance to taste it all
Someday back underneath the waves, I'll be looking up
You holding onto my hair and me throwing up
Even though you said it in my head I'm not the man at all
I can't believe that
You said I'm the man
Yeah, you said I'm the man, Yeah
