Mister Man Lyrics

On the street they're preaching violence
Mr Man it's in your head
On the street the midnight cowboy
Needs no gun to shoot you dead

Why do I act the way I do
Ain't it obvious I'm just a man like you

Mister Man full of love
Mister Man full of hate
Got his heart on the trigger
But he pulled it too late
Mister Man is a pilot
Mister Man is a fake
Mister Man is feeling hungry
And he's lying in wait

On the streets the lights are fighting
Searching for someone like you
Better find a good Messiah
To help the sad and lonely through

Why do I act the way I do
Ain't it obvious I'm much more black than blue

Mister Man full of love
Mister Man full of hate
Got his heart on the trigger
But he pulled it too late
Mister Man is a pilot
Mister Man is a fake
Mister Man is feeling hungry
And he's lying in wait

On the street they're preaching violence
Mr Man it's in your head
On the street the midnight cowboy
Needs no guns to shoot you dead

Why do I act the way I do
Ain't it obvious I'm just a man like you

Mister Man full of love
Mister Man full of hate
Got his heart on the trigger
But he pulled it too late
Mister Man is a pilot
Mister Man is a fake
Mister Man is feeling hungry
And he's lying in wait
