Homo Sapiens
[Verse 1]
You can't overestimate the limits of aggression
Of an animal created in the image of God himself
You can't allow for subtle defects, there's no time of reflect
There's no time to cover your tracks
It's not a mistake to fear an animal's own limited access
To plans and schemes, without his hopes and dreams
Such a sense of satisfaction, such a cause of action
Search, evaluate and destroy
[Chorus]
I am a man, I'm a superstar
I shine so bright, a worldwide success
I said, hammer it home, I'm a superstar
A glowing example of a dream come true
I am a man, I'm a work of art, I'm fashioned in God's own image
I am holy and clean
I am a man, I'm a superstar
I shine so bright, a worldwide success
[Post-Chorus]
Let me curl myself into a ball before you let me understand
Let me curl myself into a ball before you let me understand
Make me realize
[Verse 2]
You can't underestimate the feeling of attraction
Of the animal in question to the marvel of what he's made
You can't escape the sense of pride, he's created a divide
Between you'll suffer it to rain on his parade
Don't even think about it, it's enough to read about it
Force an animal to circle and keep an eye
On you should you decide
To have a go and try to rattle his cage
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
I am a man, I'm a gift to the world
I wish I was born as civilised and set free
I am a man, I'm a market tool
The sell of the century of the bargain of a lifetime
Hammer it home, I'm a superstar
A glowing example of a dream come true
[Post-Chorus]
Let me curl myself into a ball before you let me understand
Let me curl myself into a ball before you let me understand
Make me realise
[Outro]
I'm havin' a ball just being a man
I'm livin' it up just being a man
It sure as hell rocks just being a man
There's nothin' quite beats just being a man
Like being a man
