You Am I - Manliness lyrics
[You Am I - Manliness lyrics]
Ooh
Two roads diverged into a wood
I took neither, here I stood
Clenching my jaw
I made a fist out of my hand
You can sure waste a lot of time
Trying to be a man
I hugged a tree, I shed a tear
(I hugged a tree, I shed a tear)
But, I did it all while no one was here
(No one was here)
Except my shadow who was making other plans
You can sure waste a lot of space
Trying to be a man
Oh, verbs and nouns and adjectives
Extracted as if through a sieve
Leaving out the flowery bit's
The rind, the pulp, yеah, and the pips
Reduce it all down to thе juice
Trying to be a man
I score a goal, but I miss the point
(I score a goal, but I miss the point)
My statement made, then I left the joint
(I left the joint)
Opinions are like arseholes
I kept it clean, then I ran
You can suck the air out of a room
Trying to be a man
Opinions disguised as facts
And can I take the last one back?
Leaning so far that you fall, ooh
Oh, the thrill of it all
One step forward, one step back
Trying to be a man, oh oh
Two roads diverged into a wood
Oh, I took neither, here I stood
Grains of sand as they fall
In through my hand
Oh, just watching time go by
Trying to be human trying to be human
Trying to be human
Trying to be human trying to be human
Trying to be human, man
Two roads diverged into a wood
I took neither, here I stood
Clenching my jaw
I made a fist out of my hand
You can sure waste a lot of time
Trying to be a man
I hugged a tree, I shed a tear
(I hugged a tree, I shed a tear)
But, I did it all while no one was here
(No one was here)
Except my shadow who was making other plans
You can sure waste a lot of space
Trying to be a man
Oh, verbs and nouns and adjectives
Extracted as if through a sieve
Leaving out the flowery bit's
The rind, the pulp, yеah, and the pips
Reduce it all down to thе juice
Trying to be a man
I score a goal, but I miss the point
(I score a goal, but I miss the point)
My statement made, then I left the joint
(I left the joint)
Opinions are like arseholes
I kept it clean, then I ran
You can suck the air out of a room
Trying to be a man
Opinions disguised as facts
And can I take the last one back?
Leaning so far that you fall, ooh
Oh, the thrill of it all
One step forward, one step back
Trying to be a man, oh oh
Two roads diverged into a wood
Oh, I took neither, here I stood
Grains of sand as they fall
In through my hand
Oh, just watching time go by
Trying to be human trying to be human
Trying to be human
Trying to be human trying to be human
Trying to be human, man
