I got a job in Atlanta in a mall playing Santa
|
Not because of any talent but because I was the
|
only one the suit would fit
|
Everybody shopping, little sticky kids were hopping
|
on my lap with their fingers in my beard,
|
I guess they thought that I was really it
|
She sat down on my lap and said to me
|
"I'm twenty three and I need someone
|
You look like someone who could play with me
|
Stay with me, all day with me"
|
|
'Cause I'm in no man's land
|
Can't seem to find a real man
|
You know I'm lookin' for a steel man
|
She said I'm in no man's land
|
I'm gonna show you a real good time
|
I'd gladly pay you double overtime
|
|
She was beggin' to be mine, but my job was on the line
|
Should I say or should I go? I just didn't know...Hmmmm
|
|
I left fifty kids standin' in line, they were whining, they were crying
|
and their mothers they were screaming in hysterics and I swear
|
I never heard such profanity
|
I dropped my suit on the floor,
|
they were trying to block the door
|
They were calling her a whore
|
They were driven to nativital insanity
|
We drove away in her Mercedes Benz,
|
dirty blond split ends in the breeze
|
She said "I want to put you under my tree
|
You're just a little gift from me to me"
|
|
'Cause I'm in no man's land
|
Can't seem to find a real man
|
You know I'm lookin' for a steel man
|
She said I'm in no man's land
|
You know I'm ready for a real good time
|
I'd gladly pay you double overtime
|
|
She had money all her life
|
She wasn't lookin' to become my wife
|
She said, "I hope you understand,
|
I just want a nightful of man, Sonny"
|
|
She didn't notice I was thin with a delicate chin
|
Nor the softness of my skin, nor the scent of my other personalities
|
She didn't see through my disguise - didn't see it in my eyes
|
She was in for a surprise when she discovered my emotional plurality
|
|
She said "Come and lay down on the floor with me
|
It's warmer here by the fire"
|
She didn't know that there was more of me
|
She'd have to learn to love all four of me
|
|
'Cause I'm in no man's land
|
I'm lookin' for the real me
|
If only I could feel me
|
You know I'm in no man's land
|
Sometimes I gotta play me
|
It's really hard to stay me
|
Hey, I'm in no mans land
|
I'm looking for the real me
|
If only I could feel me
|
You know I'm in no man's land
|
Sometimes I gotta play me
|
It's really hard to stay me
|
Oh, I'm in no man's land
|
I'm looking for the real me
|
If only I could feel me
|
