A Man |
I am a man as a man I’ve been told |
Bacon is brought to the house in this mold |
Born of your bellies I yearn for the cord |
Years I have groveled repentance ignored |
And I have been blamed |
And I have repented |
I’m working my way toward our union mended |
I am man who has grown from a son |
Been crucified by enraged women |
I am son who was raised by such men |
I’m often reminded of the fools I’m among |
And I have been shamed |
And I have relented |
I’m working my way toward our union mended |
And I have been shamed |
And I have repented |
I’m working my way toward our union mended |
we don’t fare well with endless reprimands |
we don’t do well with a life served as a sentence |
this won’t work well if you’re hell bent on your offence |
I am a man who understands your resistance |
I am a man who still does what he can |
to dispel our archaic reputation |
I am a man who has heard all he can |
cuz I don’t fare well with endless punishment |
Cuz I have been blamed and I have repented |
I’m working my way toward our union mended |
And we have been blamed and we have repented |
I’m working my way toward our union mended |
