What
This microphone shocks my lips
Am I being judged
These cable cords catch my feet
Am I about to fall
He is a simple man
He has a simple plan
He wants to make things sound beautiful
But he can't take the stage
He can't contain his rage
He's got the monitors all the way up
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
And he gives sound advice
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
And he's got me down flat in the studio
Can't take his headphones off
Although they hurt his head
He smokes a cig instead
On the radio
He points at says "That's me!"
Although I did not sing
[?] or anything
You can hear me
I'm a ghost in the machine
Can you hear me?
No, I can't hear anything
Turn the monitors up
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
And he gives sound advice
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
And he sees me sharp
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
I can see myself gaining weight
Drinking pumpkin beer at the warehouse
Losing my hair
Learning the correct way to wrap wires
Losing my hearing
Losing count of the festivals
Can we make the bands sound better than the sound they make?
He is a simple man
He has a simple plan
He wants to make things sound beautiful
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
I can't hear what you're saying to me
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
Nobody listen to the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
Make sure you listen to the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man
He is the sound man

No no no no
I can still hear the f**ing click track
I would be honored to be castrated at your hands
Yes, I'd be happy to play tambourine in your band
Oh, the dawn of a let me produce
You gotta keep it loud to my news
'Cause I like it loud and loose I got a low fidelity
