Marc Almond - A Man lyrics

I really must stop always being the child

Chasing his youth his heartnose to the wind

I really must cure my tender nostalgia

Bury deep my stars beneath the veil of night

I must postpone my spanish château

Dreams that befuddle like an old wine

I must also give up those sunny states

To become a man

And when that day comes

You will forgive meyou won't be surprised

When I show my teethwhen I show my bite

Then I will be a man

And I will stand tall

I really must share my classes with others

So my youth can pass at lastso I forget

I really must scrape my nails on my heart

That my life hardens with sorrow and pain

I must upset my guardian angels

Who soothed me too much

And when that day comes

You won't be annoyed

If I scratch a bitif I practice being....so savage!

You will forgive meyou won't be surprised

When I show my teethwhen I show my bite

Then I will be a man

And I will stand tall

And you will be prepared to find before you

Someone who's like youa wolf among the wolves

Then I will be a man

And I will stand tall

And you will be prepared to find before you

Someone who's like youI'll be a wolf among the wolves

Then I will be a man

And I will stand tall

Then I will be a man

And I will stand tall
