See that man - I carry the world upon my back.
|
Talk to that man - there is no hope, I never talk back.
|
Sold my soul for a cheap ideal.
|
The price I paid? The spice of life.
|
Now I'm in a real dilemma,
|
I must keep myself alive ... alive ... alive.
|
|
Look at that man - What am I doing in a place like this?
|
Pity that man - I live my life like it's a crime!
|
The sun goes dim, the moon turns black.
|
What I gave away, I never got back.
|
Now I'm in a real dilemma.
|
I must keep myself alive ... alive ... alive.
|
|
I see junk to my left! Freaks to my right!
|
Ain't no one laughin' - Ain't nothing funny.
|
Ain't nothing happening. 'Cause we ain't got no money!
|
Hey! Hey! Hey! ... Misfortune!
|
Woe! Woe! Woe! .... Misfortune!
|
Watch that man! Everything I see goes into a book.
|
I said, watch that man! I live my life with a filthy look!
|
|
Sold my soul for a cheap ideal.
|
The price I paid? The spice of life.
|
Now I'm in a real dilemma,
|
I must keep myself alive.
|
|
The angels they came to visit me.
|
Some divine intervention ... they said
|
"Are you the boy with the stars in your eyes?
|
Are you the boy that fooled the world?"
|
Flappin' their wings, tellin' me things.
|
Flappin' their wings, tellin' me things...
|
I said "I know what I like. I know what I want!
|
But I never seem to know, I never seem to know.
|
How to get that thing boy. How d'ya get that thing boy?
|
Can you tell me how you got, how you got that thing?
|
How d'ya get that thing boy?"
|
|
See that man! Talk to that man!
|
Look at that man but don't ya pity that man!
|
I'm a man of misfortune! I'm a man of misfortune!
|
Look at that man! Watch that man!
|
But Na! Na! No! don't talk to that man!
|
I'm a man of misfortune. I'm a man of misfortune.
|
I must keep myself alive. I must keep myself alive.
