Wary as a bug and tiny as a scheme He's gonna go walkin' like a beast competes And all the sparrows gonna sing His belt buckles gonna gleam Yeah Your sister needs a settle and your pals need a pill And all the people hopin' that they're gonna make the will And all the boots are gonna quake Just like they got their lives at stake And they said it once and they say it again Man, man it must be tough, tough, tough, tough being the man Aha, aha, aha, aha, da-da, aha, aha, aha Yeah Nothin' ever gives, the epicenter wakes And all the shops are wavin' and all the cakes bake And Monday usually never cares Until it gets a glimpse of his hair And nothin's never wrong, his lookin' makes a sound You better take a seat until you comin' back around And everywhere he's gonna go The heart-beatin' never slows And they said it once and they say it again Man, man it must be tough, tough, tough, tough being the man Aha, aha, aha, aha, da-da, aha, aha, aha Yeah And they said it once and they say it again Man, man it must be tough, tough, tough, tough being the man Aha, aha, aha, aha, aha, aha, aha
