Real Man (真正的男人) - Todd Rundgren

When I was a child

I thought as a child

I spoke as a child

I didn't know better

But now I'm a man

I look like a man

I'm old as a man

And I should know better

Got my head in the sky

And my mind knows what it wants

But my body just drags me down

And my world is something you can't see

But it's still very real to me

You can find it in the hole where I keep my soul

There it is - way down inside me

There's a real man

Forget about my body and be a real man

I see with my heart

I hear with my heart

I feel with my heart

Sometimes it works better

And some so-called friends put me down

And they pity me for trying

Bad emotions push me around

But the vision shines on and on

It will shine when we all are gone

And I'd like to add a little sparkle while I'm here

Light it up - way down inside me

There's a real man

Forget about bad feelings and be a real man

Some men's world is only hate and money

Afraid of everything and they laugh at nothing

And they only live to criticize

But the time comes to everybody

When you must decide

When that day finally comes along

You might wish you'd been a little more strong

Then you'll wake up in the morning cryin'

"Oh my God"

There it is - way down inside me

It's a real man

You got to grow up sometime

Be a real man

Suffer them slings and arrows

Be a real man

Now be a real man

Don't sell yourself for nothing

Be a real man

Don't take no crap from no one

Be a real man

Get your trip together

Be a real man
