Im The Man — текст песни (Joe Jackson)

Pretty soon now

Yknow Im gonna make a comeback

And like the birds and the bees in the trees

Its a sure-fire smash

Ill speak

To the masses throughout the media

And if you got anything to say to me

You can say it with cash

cause I got the trash and you got the cash

So baby we should get along fine

So give me all your money cause I know you think Im funny

Cant you hear me laughing

Cant you see me smile



Im the man

Im the man that gave you the hula-hoop

Im the man

Im the man that gave you the yo-yo



Kung fu

That was one of my good ones

Well whats a few broken bones

When we all know its good clean fun

Skateboards

Ive almost made them respectable

You see I cant always get through to you

So I go for your son

I had a giant rubber shark and it really made a mark

Didja looka looka lookit alla blood

Give me all your money cause I know you think Im funny

Cant you hear me laughing

Cant you see me smile



Im the man

Im the man that gave you the hula-hoop

Im the man

Im the man that gave you the yo-yo



Right now

I think Im gonna plan a new trend

Because the line on the graphs getting low

And we cant have that

And you think youre immune

But I can sell you anything

Anything from a thin safety pin

To a pork pie hat

cause I got the trash and you got the cash

So baby we should get along fine

So give me all your money cause I know you think Im funny

Cant you hear me laughing

Cant you see me smile



Im the man

Im the man that gave you the hula-hoop

Im the man

Im the man that gave you the yo-yo
