Oh, didn't you like to do
An uneasy thing to do? (?)
Are you troubled by the bad things in your life?
If you're worrying 'bout a verse(?)
And you can't get it off your chest
Just lie down and try to ease your mind
If your mother(?) comes 'round the bend
Come to give you a helping hand
Do you wish to go and bury your head in the sand?
Oh, do you wish to be a man?
Do you wish to be a man?
Do you wish to be the one to understand?
Oh, do you wish to be a man?
Do you wish to be a man?
Oh, do you wish to be a man?
Well the misery is yours
If you hide behind that door
If you hide behind the troubles(?) in your life
You haven't got a friend
And there's no one to take you in
Will you come in, stretch(?) and stand up on your own?
When you know that your time has come
And there'll be no place to run
There will be no time to bury your head in the sand
So, do you wish to be a man?
Do you wish to be a man?
Do you wish to be the one to understand?
Oh, do you wish to be a man?
Do you wish to be a man?
Oh, do you wish to be a man?
Do you wish to be a man?
Do you wish to be a man?
Oh, do you wish to be a man?
