The Kinks - Powerman lyrics

[The Kinks - Powerman lyrics]

I know a man, he's a powerful man
Got the people in his power in
The palm of his hand
He started at the bottom but
He worked his way up
Now he's never going to stop
Until he reaches the top

It's the same old story
It's the same old dream
It's Powerman, Powerman
And all that it can bring

If you want your money
Better stand in the line
But, you'll only end up picking
Up the nickels and dimes
You call him names and he sit's and grins
'Cause everybody else is just a sucker to him

And he's got my money but, I've got my faith


And Powerman, Powerman
I'll never be your slave
It's the same old story
It's the same old game
Powerman, Powerman, he's driving me insane

People tried to conquer the world
Napoleon and Genghis Khan
Hitler tried and Mussolini too
Powerman don't need to fight
Powerman don't need no guns
Powerman got money on his side

Well I'm not rich and I'm not free
But, I've got my girl and she got me
He's got my money and my publishing rights
But, I've got my girl and I'm alright

And she's got me going and she keeps me sane
Powerman, Powerman, got money on the brain
It's the same old story
It's the same old game
Powerman, Powerman, he's driving me insane
