I’m a Man Pulp

[Verse 1]
Laid here with the advertising sliding past my eyes
Like cartoons from other people's lives
I start to wonder what it takes to be a man, mm
Well, I learned to drink and I learned to smoke
And I learned to tell a dirty joke
Oh, if that's all there is, then there's no point for me

[Chorus]
Oh, so please can I ask just why we're alive?
'Cause all that you do seems such a waste of time
And if you hang around too long, you'll be a man
Tell me 'bout it
Your car can get up to a hundred and ten
You've nowhere to go, but you'll go there again
And nothing ever makes no difference to a man

[Verse 2]
So you stumble into town and hold your stomach in
Show them what you've got, though they've seen everything
Yeah, you're a beauty, but they've seen your type before
You've got no need, but still you want
So go and book that restaurant
The wine will flow and then you'll just fly away

[Chorus]
Oh, so please can I ask just why we're alive?
'Cause all that you do seems such a waste of time
And if you hang around too long you'll be a man
Tell me 'bout it
Your car can go up to a hundred and ten
You've nowhere to go but you'll go there again
And nothing ever makes no difference to a man
