The Man

Lyrics:

See you by the takeaway, hangin’ with the boys, just a little tearaway, wanna make some noise, there you standin’ toe to toe, pushing for a fight, ‘cause you’ve no where else to go, trouble here tonight. Did you drag yourself up by the collar, all you can hear is your mama holler, better get home now, don’t be late, your dinner’s on the
table and it won’t wait, nah…….got a new jacket and you think you’re really cool, it really cost a packet, but you been skipping school, doing little deals and you’re buying and selling, gotta keep it real, but you ain’t telling where you picked it up from, the back of a van and you don’t have a clue but you think you’re the man, you think you’re the man, you think you’re the man…...so what you think you’re doing can’t you give it a rest, you wanna join the crew but they think you’re a pest, your papa’s come looking and the signs ain’t good, you better get running, this ain’t your neighbourhood. so what you think you’re doing can’t you give it a rest, you wanna join the crew but they think you’re a pest, your papa’s come looking and the signs ain’t good, you better get running,….
