The Man

Look in the mirror I am The Man Mrs. Miller says I am The Man Ask the birds singin' I am The Man Everyone is a fan A little walk through the neighborhood People nod 'cause it's understood Mr. Henry comes out to stand A wave and shout-out To The Man Ask the birds singin' I am The Man By popular demand The little skinhead with the tattooed face Shows me a moment of style and grace The old hippie with the tie-dye headband Flashes a peace sign to The Man Ask the birds singin' I am The Man Well, I do what I can The angry redneck in his pickup truck Tips his hat and gives the thumbs-up The New Age guy with the yoga mat Blesses me with a pat on the back The longhaired indie rock kid in a band Looks through his hair and shakes my hand The old homeless guy who smells like pee Stops talking nonsense and says "Morning, E" Ask the birds singin' I am The Man It's all part of the plan The thug rapper with the gold and chains Puts in his grill and says "Good day" The politician going door to door Says "No vote means more to me than yours" Ask the birds singin' I am The Man You know I'd win if I ran
