I don't know how old I was 
But it was a '65 pickup 
I was lying on the ground 
With flat iron bars over my head 

One silver drop is all you need 
To put a hole in your head at 2000 degrees 
That's right man, you be the Metal Man 
At 2000 degrees That's hot that's hot 

And over my head the hot wire was sparking 
I got something down on my chest 
And it began to bubble 

I was repairing my three on a tree 
When a drip dropped down on me 
That's right man, I'm the Metal Man
