The Mans Too Strong
Im just and ageing drummer boy
And in the wars I used to play
And Ive called the tune
To many a torture session
Now they say I am a war criminal
And Im fading away
Father please her my confession
I have legalised robbery
Called it a belief
I have run with the money
And hid like a theif
I have re-written history
With my armies and my crooks
Invented memories
I did burn all the books
And I can still hear his laughter
And I can still hear his song
The mans too big
The mans too strong
Well I have tried to be meek
And I have tried to be mild
But I spat like a woman
And sulked like a child
I have lived behind walls
That have made me alone
Striven for peace
Which I have never known
And I can still hear his laughter
And I can still hear his song
The mans too big
The mans too strong
Well the sun rose on the courtyard
And they all did hear him say
you always were a judas
But I got you anyway
You may have got your silver
But I swear upon my life
Your sister gave me diamonds
And I gave them to your wife
Oh father please help me
For I have done wrong
The mans too big
The mans too strong

Man's Too Strong
I'm just and ageing drummer boy

Its A Mans, Mans, Mans World
Its a mans,mans,mans world
This is a mans world
This is a mans world
But it would be nothing
Nothing without a woman to care
You see man made the cars
To take us over the world
Man made the train
To carry the heavy load
Man made the electro lights
To take us out of the dark
Man made the bullet for the war
Like noah made the ark
This is a mans mans, mans world
But it would be nothing
Nothing without a woman to care
Man thinks of our little baby girls and the baby boys
Man make them happy cause man makes them toys
And aher man make everything, everything he can
You know that man makes money to buy from other man
This is a mans world
But it would be nothing, nothing
Not one little thing
Without a woman to care
Hes lost in the wilderness
Hes lost in the bitterness
Hes lost, lost and .....

The End Of times
Everyone is praying
While the rest of the world is preparing
The Soliders are dying
The Zombies are rising
All of this came from mans greed, Mans lust for power, mans Desire to play god
As the worlds armies rise up as one the heavans part
showing Gods army Rushing down
The ground splits open and all of mans nightmares are released onto a once majestic mother earth
All of this came from mans greed, Mans lust for power, mans Desire to play god
There's no where you can go, no where you can hide
For nothing escapes the lords sight
this is the end of mankind
This is the way the world dies

{absolute Fulfillment Of Woman}
Woman needs mans presence near
To see the warmth and understanding
In such loving beautiful eyes
Woman needs mans protection
To envelop her in strong arms
So safely she can slumber
Woman needs mans heart
To show undying devotion
To know it is her he cannot live without
Woman needs mans touch
Her flesh burns in desire
For the love he so gently tenders
Woman needs man near
Within her heart and very soul
He is the completion of her.........

Mans Road
Written by jimmy webb, 1982
Found on the last unicorn soundtrack and your move (french import only).
Horizon rising up to meet the purple dawn
Dust demon screaming, bring an eagle to lead me on
For in my heart I carry such a heavy load
Here I am on mans road, walking mans road, walking mans road
Im hungry, weary, but I cannot lay me down
The rain comes, dreary, but theres no shelter I have found
It will be a long time till I find my abode
Here I am on mans road, walking mans road
Moon rising, disguising lonely streets in gay displays
The stars fade, the night shade falls and makes the world afraid
It waits in silence for the sky to explode
Here I am on mans road, walking mans road, walking mans road
Walking mans road, walking mans road, walking mans road

One Mans Meat
Cold beer and a strange cigarette
Getting you high getting you wet
Falling in love falling out of debt
Straight gay black or white
Strutting in the dark hiding in the light
Doing it wrong doing it right just doing it
You got your life on the one hand
Mine in the other
I got the right we all got the right
One mans meat is the other mans lousy luck
One mans meat is someones empty well
One mans meat is some guys aching butt
One mans meat is another mans living hell
Short fat thick or thin
Take it in the gut take it on the chin
Living in glory living in sin
Hard days work going down slow
Riding the road where the greengrass grows
Watching in die what dyou know
Watch it
You got your life on the one hand
Mine in the other
I got the right
One mans meat is the other mans lousy luck
One mans meat is someones empty well
One mans meat is some guys aching butt
One mans meat is another mans living hell

Love Is A Mans World
Dont you know that the girl left a long time ago
And I find that she took half the blood that I own
And it pains me to think about wasting way the years
So Ill just wash this dirty whiskey glass with my tears
Love is a mans world
Love is a mans world
Love is a mans world
Its a crime the way weve been treatin each other
And a maze in between the real me and the lover
Im tired of believing that I lost all my senses
I never though my imaginary dream would be so expensive
Love is a mans world
Love is a mans world
Love is a mans world
Love is a mans world (etc fade)

One Man's Woman
Shes got dinner on the table at seven
The kids are tucked in bed by nine-fifteen
And shes headed for a hotel at eleven
To meet a man her familys never seen.
As the elevator takes her to her lover
She thinks about his wife at home asleep
And she knows it must be painful to discover
That the man you loves not always yours to keep.
Well, shes one mans bride
And shes one mans on the side
She wonders why it takes two men
To keep her satisfied.
Shes a hard workin house-wife
Right now shes occupied
Shes one mans woman
And one mans on the side
Yes, shes one mans woman
And one mans on the side.
She thinks about her husband when its over
But she justifies her love affair somehow
She knows it cant go on like this forever
But she takes it all from day to day for now.

Money Money Money
I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Aint it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
Thats too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldnt have to work at all, Id fool around and have a ball...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich mans world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich mans world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
Its a rich mans world
A man like that is hard to find but I cant get him off my mind
Aint it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldnt fancy me
Thats too bad
So I must leave, Ill have to go
To las vegas or monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich mans world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich mans world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
Its a rich mans world
Money, money, money
Must be funny

Half Way Up
Ive seen it going around when you get bad news
Thinking that you found a darker shade of blues
Looking for the light and its a long way back
You know without a fight youre gonna fade to black
Never was a man that ever felt this way
One who couldnt live to see another day
Hard times seem to have the corner on you
But you can rise from the ashes too
When Im on my knees and everything has gotten me beat
And even I believe Im never gonna find my feet
Two ways you can go you can ask anybody around
One mans half way up is another mans half way down
Now you may decide its a losing game
Even in your stride youre gonna call it lame
Getting one leg up when its said and done
Is the hardest part no matter how you run
If you can walk away from a crash and burn
Youll appreciate every step you earn
And if you feel the ground is gaining on you
Youre already bound to take a different view
When Im on my knees and everything has gotten me beat
And even I believe Im never gonna find my feet
Two ways you can go you can ask anybody around
One mans half way up is another mans half way down
One mans ceiling is another mans floor
One mans wall could be another mans door
One mans smile is another mans frown
And there are miles of half way up or half way down

One Mans Ceiling Is Another Mans Floor
Words & music by paul simon
Theres been some hard feelings here
About some words that were said
Been some hard feelings here
And what is more
Theres been a bloody purple nose
And some bloody purple clothes
That were messing up the lobby floor
Its just apartment house rules
So all you partment fools
Remember: one mans ceiling is another mans floor!
One mans ceiling is another mans floor
Theres been some strange goins on
And some folks have come and gone
Like the elevator man dont work no more
I heard a racket in the hall
And I thought I heard a call
But I never opened up my door
Its just apartment house sense
Its like apartment rents
Remember: one mans ceiling is another mans floor!
One mans ceiling is another mans floor!
Theres an alley
In the back of my building
Where some people congregate in shame
I was walking with my dog
And the night was black with smog
When I thought I heard somebody
Call my name
Ah-- remember: one mans ceiling is another mans floor!
One mans ceiling is another mans floor!

Rich Girl
Youre a rich girl, and youve gone too far
cause you know it dont matter anyway
You can rely on the old mans money
You can rely on the old mans money
I ts a bitch girl but its gone too far
cause you know it dont matter anyway
Say money but it wont get you too far,
Get you too far
And dont you know, dont you know
That its wrong to take what is given you
So far gone, on your own
You can get along if you try to be strong
But youll never be strong
cause
Youre a rich girl, and youve gone too far
cause you know it dont matter anyway
You can rely on the old mans money
You can rely on the old mans money
Its a bitch girl and its gone too far
cause you know it dont matter anyway
Say money but it wont get you too far,
Get you too far
High and dry, out of the rain
Its so easy to hurt others when you cant feel pain
And dont you know that a love cant grow
cause theres too much to give, cause youd rather live
For the thrill of it all, oh
Youre a rich girl, and youve gone too far
cause you know it dont matter anyway
You can rely on the old mans money
You can rely on the old mans money
Its a bitch girl and its gone too far
cause you know it dont matter anyway
Say money but it wont get you too far,
Say money but it wont get you too far,
Say money but it wont get you too far,
Get you too far
And you say
You can rely on the old mans money
You can rely on the old mans money
Youre a rich girl, a rich girl
Oh, youre a rich rich girl yeah
Say money but it wont get you too far,
Oh, get ya too far

Blind Eye
Stranger than the sunrise
Darker than the night
Fiercer than a rainstorm
This is mans delight
This is mans delight
Weaker than a moment
And hot as any fire
Blinder than the blind eye
This is mans desire
This is mans desire
I ran to a place in the open sea
Where I pledged
My life to the sun
It was good for a while
I could laugh, I could smile
But when I woke up one day
The sun had gone
So what of my meaning
What am I trying to say
What of my caution
Im a man anyway
Im a man anyway

Every Young Mans Dream
She was my guiding light
She was my day and night
I hung on every word, no matter wrong or right
She could raise me up to heights Ive never seen
And the coming of age is every young mans dream
Oh, oh shes every young mans dream
Oh, oh shes every young mans dream
She was the first for me
She wet my thirst for me
If I was feeling down
She was a nurse for me
She could take me up to heights Ive never been
And the coming of age is every young mans dream
Oh, oh, shes every young mans dream
Oh, oh shes every young mans dream
Oh, oh shes every young mans dream
Oh, oh shes every young mans dream
Oh, tu es toujours dans mon coeur
I like to raise my glass
I like to praise the past
Some things go on forever
Some things never last
She could raise me up
She was my fantasy
And the coming of age is every young mans dream
Oh, oh shes every young mans dream
Oh, oh shes every young mans dream
Oh, eres siempre en mi mente
She was my guiding light
She was my day and night
I hung on every word, no matter wrong or right
She could raise me up to heights Ive never seen
And the coming of age is every young mans dream.....chorus to fade

When A Mans In Love
(r. stewart, c. kentis, j. golub, c. rojas)
He wakes up in the morning like a newborn baby
The message on the machine says youre driving me crazy
His feet dont touch the ground
He can hardly wait to see her tonight
Now every new song on the radio reminds him of her
He says hello to strangers and hes singing in the shower
The sign in his eyes says this guys got a problem so nice so nice
She dont know what shes doing to him
Every days like christmas it sure aint a dream
When a mans in love when a mans in love
Hell fight like a tiger fly like a dove when a mans in love
Hes early on the job and all his friends begin to sense
His attitude has changed hes serene and contented
His feet dont touch the ground he can hardly wait to see her tonight
And he calls her on the telephone about a dozen times an hour
Shes flattered by the avalanche of attention and flowers
He tells all his buddies boys, Ive finally found someone for me
She dont know what shes doing to him
Every days like christmas it sure aint a dream
When a mans in love, when a mans in love
Aint nothin too hard or too tough when a mans in love
When a mans in love, when a mans in love
Hell fight like a tiger fly like a dove when a mans in love
When a mans in love
She dominates his every thought and dream and conversation
He talks about her constantly with an air of jubilation
There aint nothin in the world he wouldnt do to make her little face smile
But oh dont it make you want to smile and dance
May God bless us all with a little romance
When a mans in love, when a mans in love
Shes in his heart and running through his blood
When a mans in love
When a mans in love
Hell fight like a tiger, fly like a dove
When a mans in love
When a mans in love
There aint nothing he cant do
When a mans in love
When a mans in love

A Poor Mans Roses Or A Rich Mans Gold
(milton delugg, bob hilliard)
I must make up my mind today
What to have what to hold
A poor mans roses
Or a rich mans gold
Ones as wealthy as a king in a palace
Though hes calice and cold
He may learn to give his heart for love
Instead of buying it with gold
Then the poor mans roses
And the thrill when we kiss
Will be memories of paradise
That Ill never miss
And yet the hand that brings a rose tonight
Is the hand that I will hold
For the rose of love means more to me
More than any rich mans gold
Repeat verses #3 and #4

Go & Tell Him
I dont care about your mans reputation.
I dont care what you say about him.
All I know is youre some kind of woman,
And, it wont be tonight,
But, girl, youre gonna give in.
Go and give him his walking papers.
Tell him things that he never knew.
Dont you hear what your new mans saying, girl?
Dont you know what youve got to do now?
Go and tell him you cant see him again.
Go and tell him you cant see him again.
You cant say that you dont think about me late at night, lying in your bed.
Stirring the soup
And you start to think about the times that we had
And the times that I said now.
Go and tell him you cant see him again.
Go and tell him you cant see him again.
I dont care about your mans reputation.
I dont care what your mans gonna do.
You can tell that youre gonna come running, baby.
I can tell that youre gonna come soon.
Go and tell him you cant see him again.
Go and tell him, nah, you cant see him again. (you cant see him right now)
Go and tell him you cant see him again.
Go and tell him that you are gone.
Go and tell him that you are gone.
Go and tell him that you are gone.
I said, go and tell him that you are gone.
Go, you can tell.
Go and tell him girl.
Let him know youre coming home with me tonight.
Oh, oh, oh.
