lyrics

I GOTTA GREEN EYES THEY WORK FINE WITH DAYLIGHT
THEY GIVE ME A GUIDE OF WHAT IS GOOD OR BAD FOR ME
THE TOLD ME TODAY , THAT MAN YOU´RE A FAKE
THAT YOU ARE NOT THAT GENTLEMAN
YOU WERE TRYING TO APPEAR TO BE
DO YOU REMEMBER THOSE NIGHT WITH CANDLE LIGHTS?
DO YOU REMEMBER THE MOON SO ROUND AND HIGH?
I ´VE BEEN TRYING TO ACT LIKE A LADY, BABY
BUT YOU CROSSED THE LINE , NOW YOU´D BETTER RUN

ALL I REALLY WANNA SAY IS YOU ARE NOT HALF OF THE MAN
THE MAN I NEED FOR ME, TOO FAR AWAY FROM IT

POOR LITTLE GUY YOU DON´T KNOW WHERE YOU ARE
ALL I CAN SHOW YOU IS MY SOPHISTICATED STUFF
COULD TEACH YOU HOW A REAL WOMAN
WORK IT OUT DAMN GOOD
BUT TODAY I´M GONNA PLAY A LITTLE BIT WITH YOU
AS NATURE HAS IT SACRED ANCIENT RULES
YOU RAPE ALL THEM WITH THAT FREAKY ATTITUDE
SOMEWHERE MAY YOU´LL BE ACCEPTED AS YOU ARE
FOR SURE THAT PLACE IS NOT GONNA BE MY HEART

ALL I REALLY WANNA SAY IS YOU ARE NOT HALF OF THE MAN
THE MAN I NEED FOR ME, TOO FAR AWAY FROM IT
YOU ARE NOT WHAT I REALLY WANT
YOUR ARE NOT HALF OF A MAN
YOU ARE NOT FOR ME CERTAINLY

CERTAINLY, GET OUT FROM HERE
CERTAINLY, YOU ARE NOT FOR ME
CERTAINLY, DUDUBAB
CERTAINLY, YOU ARE DISMISSED
CERTAINLY (x5)
