| Lyrics: | I know a man, he's a powerful man
He's got the people in his power
In the palm of his
hand.
He started at the bottom and he worked his way up
Now he's never going to stop
Until he reaches the top.
It's the same old story, it's the same old dream,
It's
power man, power man, and all that it can bring.
If you want your money, you better stand in
the line
'Cos you'll only end up picking up nickels and dimes.
You call him names and he
sits and grins
'Cos everybody else is just a sucker to him.
And he's got my money, but
I've got my faith
And powerman, powerman, I'll never be your slave.
It's the same old
story, it's the same old game
It's power man, power man, driving me insane
People tried to
conquer the world Napoleon and Genghis Khan
Hitler tried and Mussolini too
Powerman don't
need to fight, powerman don't need no guns
Powerman got money on his side
Well I'm not
rich and I'm not free
But I've got my girl and she got me
He's got my money and my
publishing rights
But I've got my girl and I'm alright
And she got me going, and she keeps
me sane
But powerman, powerman, got money on the brain
It's the same old story it's the
same old game
Powerman, powerman driving me insane |
