David Johansen - Human being lyrics

[Intro] Ready It's A Whole Different Beast 1, 2, 3, 4 1, 2, 3, 4 (kazoo madness) Oh yeahh Oh yeeeahh [Verse 1] Well if you don't like it Go ahead find yourself a saint Go ahead now try to find a boy Who's going to be what I am not What you need is a plastic doll With a fresh coat of paint Who's gonna sit through all the madness And always act so quaint I said - a, oh yeah, well - a It's your new friend You're really Making a scene, and I've seen you Bouncing around, from machine to machine But you know that They're never really Never really what they seem And you can count on Generate some warmth, then you'll See just what I mean Oh baby, baby, baby yeah [Chorus] And if I'm acting like a king Don't you know it's because uh I'm a human being And if I want too many things Don't you know it's because I'm a human being And if I've got to dream Don't you know it's because I'm a human being And when it gets a bit obscene Don't you know it's because I'm a human being I don't got to walk around with my head on down Just like a human, oh no a human being I can hold my head so high Just like a human A real proud human being [Verse 2] Won't you give me a little sip Why won't you give me a drag of that cigarette Why don't you try to give me something That I'll never ever forget, but now Could you blow it all On a million dollar bet Because you're liable to lose it On a best loving you've had yet Oh baby baby, oh yeah [Chorus] [Bridge] It's like I'm talking about the human race You're trying to cover up a big disgrace Oh baby, yeah, yeah, yeah Come on, come on, come on, come on [Verse 3] Well I may think that This whole scene is just a too appalling for me Well, I may be the type who's just mad about Funny little thing that I see, but I can Colour that with history, and make it Just what I want it to be, well I'm Blowing my change on the fan magazines With all the Hollywood refugees Oh baby baby oh yeah [Chorus]
