Man - Neko Case

I’m a man

That’s what you raised me to be

I’m not an identity crisis

This was planned

I’m a man

There’s innocence in all mankind

It’s what kind of animal I am

It’s that simple, oh

I’m a man

And not just casually

I pull the sparks full-time

Your treehouse will not support me

I’m not the runt of the litter

The fat-fingered bullies were no match for me

So taste them in my teeth

I’m a man

I’m a man’s man;

I’ve always been

Make no mistake that I’ve invested in

A woman’s heart as the watermark

Of which I measure everything

I’m a man

That’s what you raised me to be

I’m not your identity crisis

This was planned

I’m a man

You’ll have to deal with me

My proxy is mine

You’ll deal with me directly

And if I’m dipshit drunk on the pink perfume

Then I’m the man in the fucking moon

'Cause you didn’t know what a man was

Until I showed you
