I was the most beautiful man in the world
I had the most beautiful clock
It seemed to stretch around the block
On the track, time slipped back
The world forgot my victory lap
Tiger features cragged away
And now I am the shadow man
I was the most beautiful man in the world
I earned the most beautiful scars
Crashing all the most beautiful cars
Nought to sixty in six seconds
Christ it only felt like seven
Round the track and in the sack
And now I am the shadow man
I was the most beautiful man in the world
Girls and cars, bars, guitars
I thought it would all last forever
But time ran out, and now in heaven
I am the shadow man
I was the most beautiful man in the world
I had the most beautiful clock
Tick, tock, tick, tock
Girls, girls, girls, girls
Tick, tock, tick, tock
The shadow man
But now I am the shadow man
Girls, girls, girls, girls
Now I am the shadow man
Girls, girls, girls, girls
Tick, tock, tick, tock
But now I am the shadow
