OK, you're on your own, it's late,
Your girlfriend is on another date
with the hero in your dream.
Turn around, ask yourself. So,
you think you're gonna win this
time Manchild?

Is it the pain of the drinking
Or the Sunday sinking feeling?
The car never seems to work.
When it's late your girlfriend's on a date
And the hero with her in your dream.
In your sleep it seemed like you
Turn around ask yourself.
Turn around ask yourself!

Ref:
Manchild, will you ever win?
Manchild, look at the state you're in.

Could you go undercover
And sell your brand new lover (could you)?
Be someone else for a night.
Maybe someone else will love you.
You'd sell your soul for a tacky song
Like the ones you hear on the radio.
Turn around ask yourself.
Turn around and ask yourself!

Ref:
Manchild, will you ever win?
Manchild, look at the state you're in.
Manchild, he will make you cry,
Manchild, Manchild, Manchild.

From Monday down to Friday
You're working on another man's car...
Or is it in the factory?
It doesn't matter where you are.

Just turn around and ask yourself is [bad word] 
Accentuate the positive to give some illustration.
See, Manchild, you're no one, I turn the microphone on, [bad word] when I'm kickin' it and so on
To the point that I need, the air that I breathe
Into an audience that's waiting and ecstatic to receive,
For the meantime another mean rhyme, I keep on sayin' it.
I know what the time is in the crowd
we'll keep on playing it
Through the speaker boxes loud's my diagnosis
'Cause I believe in miracles and words in steady doses.
Enough R-E-S-P-& C-T
Respect yourself, express no stress the mike is easy,
Just believe that all you need is
the air that you breathe.
(Turn around ask yourself!)

Ref:
Manchild, will you ever win?
Manchild, look at the state you're in.
Manchild, he will make you cry.
Manchild, Manchild, Manchild...
He's the apple of your eye.

Once bitten twice shy, why don't you bite me again?
Just take it in the right and go tell your friend.
Are you ready for the words I turn the microphone on?
figure of speech to reach you at the back and so on?
The style I'm stimulating dance floors
Raise your body temperature now and
This demands for power in the amp you
know loud's my diagnosis
'Cause I believe in miracles and words in heavy doses
