I'm A Man

The 88

It’s life like mine 
It’s a dope-sick play 
It’s a blue-faced find 

Gonna die today 
It’s a plastic heaven 
It’s the all white tan 
I’m a man 
It’s a black tooth mess 

It’s the acne scar 
It’s a sharp tool blessed 
It’s that VCR 
It’s a counterfeit vision 

It’s a half-ass scam 
I’m a man 
Break me down easy 
Show me your sign 
Take me back home 

I know I’ll be fine 
Trace me your outline 
Tie me to bed 
Shake me to heaven 

Soon we’ll be dead 
It’s a cold gray lie 
It’s a brain dead itch 
It’s the constant sigh 

It’s supposed to stick 
It’s the tantric tension 
It’s a well-made plan 
I’m a man 

It’s a pawnshop dream 
It’s those bathroom blues 
It’s a frightened scream 
It’s the Purcell shoes 

It’s a phony decision 
It’s a half-assed scam 
I’m a man
