i didn't ask to be born
i'm not trying to be anybody
but me
i'm not lying to anybody
but me
and i'm not dying 'cept natural
slowly
and now it's time i found out
who i am
am i really only a man
am i wrong to
even try
at times i often wonder why
it takes so goddam long oh why
now it's time that i found out
why i am
and what is really only a man
only a man
tries to understand the whole universe
only a man
can make the whole thing worse
with pollution and cars
and then go for the stars
only a man
only a man
has the reason
only a man
to figure out the seasons
only a man
and how to cut out the lesions
with pollution and cars
and then go for the stars
only a man
