Todd Rundgren - Real Man текст песни

When I was a child

I thought as a child

I spoke as a child

I didnt know better

But now Im a man

I look like a man

Im old as a man

And I should know better

Got my head in the sky

And my mind knows what it wants

But my body just drags me down

And my world is something you cant see

But its still very real to me

You can find it in the hole where I keep my soul

There it is - way down inside me

Theres a real man

Forget about my body and be a real man

I see with my heart

I hear with my heart

I feel with my heart

Sometimes it works better

And some so-called friends put me down

And they pity me for trying

Bad emotions push me around

But the vision shines on and on

It will shine when we all are gone

And Id like to add a little sparkle while Im here

Light it up - way down inside me

Theres a real man

Forget about bad feelings and be a real man

Some mens world is only hate and money

Afraid of everything and they laugh at nothing

And they only live to criticize

You can laugh at me now [ha ha ha]

But the time comes to everybody

When you must decide

When that day finally comes along

You might wish youd been a little more strong

Then youll wake up in the morning cryin

"oh my god"

There it is - way down inside me

Its a real man

You got to grow up sometime

Be a real man

Suffer them slings and arrows

Be a real man

Now be a real man

Dont sell yourself for nothing

Be a real man

Dont take no crap from no one

Be a real man

Get your trip together

Be a real man
