I'm coming up man-sized skinned alive
I want to fit I've got to get
man-sized I'm heading on
handsome got my leather boots on
got my girl and she's a wound
I cast my iron knickers down
man-sized no need to shout
can you hear can you hear me now
I'm man-sized
man-sized
I'll measure time I'll measure height
I'll calculate my birthright
good lord I'm big I'm heading on
Man-sized got my leather boots on
got my girl and she's a wound
I cast my iron knickers down
man-sized no need to shout
can you hear can you hear me now
my babe looking cool and neat
I'm pretty sure good enough to eat
I'm man-sized no need to shout
let it all let it all hang out
I'm man-size
man-size
man-size
man-size
man-size
man-size
man-size
man-size
silence my lady head
get girl out of my head
douse hair with gasoline
set it light and set it free
silence my lady head
get girl out of my head
douse hair with gasoline
set it light and set it freeAnd if she asks you why,ÂÂÂ
you can tell her that I told youÂÂÂ
That I'm tired of castles in the air.ÂÂÂ
I've got a dream I want the world to shareÂÂÂ
And castle walls just lead me to despair.ÂÂÂ
Hills of forest green where the mountains touch the sky,ÂÂÂ
A dream come true, I'll live there till I die.ÂÂÂ
I'm asking you to say my last goodbye.ÂÂÂ
The love we knew ain't worth another try.ÂÂÂ
Save me from all the trouble and the pain.ÂÂÂ
I know I'm weak, but I can't face that girl again.ÂÂÂ
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain,ÂÂÂ
Perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain.ÂÂÂ
But how can words express the feel of sunlight in the morning,ÂÂÂ
In the hills, away from city strife.ÂÂÂ
I need a country woman for my wife;ÂÂÂ
I'm city born, but I love the country life.ÂÂÂ
For I cannot be part of the cocktail generation:ÂÂÂ
Partners waltz, devoid of all romance.ÂÂÂ
The music plays and everyone must dance.ÂÂÂ
I'm bowing out. I need a second chance.ÂÂÂ
Save me from all the trouble and the pain.ÂÂÂ
I know I'm weak, but I can't face that girl again.ÂÂÂ
Tell her the reasons why I can't remain,ÂÂÂ
Perhaps she'll understand if you tell it to her plain.ÂÂÂ
And if she asks you why, you can tell her that I told youÂÂÂ
That I'm tired of castles in the air.ÂÂÂ
I've got a dream I want the world to shareÂÂÂ
And castle walls just lead me to despair.
