DbE Is it the pain of the drinking
AbDbDbsus4Db or the suddenly sinking feeling
FGb the car never seems to work
DE when its late your girlfriends on a date
C and the hero with her in your dreams and your sleep
seems like you
DDDsus4D turn around and ask yourself
DDDsus4 turn around and ask yourself
BbmEbDbB manchild, will you ever win
BbmEbBDb manchild, look at the state you're in
DbEAbDbDbsus4Db could you go undercover and sell your brand new lover could you
FGb be someone else for a night
D maybe someone else will love you
EC you'd sell your soul for a tacky song
like the ones you hear on the radio
DDDsusD turnaround and ask yourself
DDDsus turnaround and ask yourself
BbmEbDbB manchild will you ever win
BbmEbBDb manchild look at the state you're in
BbmEbDbB manchild, he won't make you cry
BbmEbBbmEbBbm manchild, manchild manchild
Ebm from Monday down to Friday Bbm you're working on a another man's car
EbmBbm or is it in the factory, it doesn't matter where you are
[scratch a wound string with your pick ;) ]
[rap1]
just turn around and ask yourself does this communication
accentuate the positive to give some illustration
say manchild, you're no-one, I turn the microphone on
control communication when I'm kicking it and so on
to the point where I need air that I breathe
and to annoy the instance, waiting and ecstatic to receive
for the meantime, another mirror
I keep on saying it, I know what the time is and the crowd will
keep on playing,
through these beat boxes, loud's my diagnosis
coz I believe in miracles and words in heavy doses
enough r.e.s.p.e.c.t, respect himself express, no stress
remark is easy just believe that all you need is the air that you
breathe (turn around and ask yourself, x 2)
BbmEbDbB manchild will you ever win
BbmEbBDb manchild look at the state you're in
BbmEbDbB manchild, he won't make you cry
BbmEbBbmEbBbmEbBDb manchild, manchild manchild he's the apple of your life
once bitten, twice shy
[rap2]
why dont you find me again, just take it in, right
and go tell your friends
are you ready for the words, I'll turn the microphone on
a figure of speech to reach you at the back
and so on this style
I'm stimulating dancefloors, raise your body temperature now
and this demands for power in the amps, you know loud's my diagnosis
coz I believe in miracles, words in heavy doses
