Human Being

Well if you don't like it

go ahead, find yourself a saint

go ahead now,

try to find a boy

who's gonna be what I ain't

now what you need is

a plastic doll with a fresh coat of paint

who's gonna sit through the madness

and always acts so quaint

so yeah yeah yeah

With your new friend

you're really making a scene

and I see you bouncing around

from machine to machine

and you know

they're never really,

never what they seem

and you can try to generate some warmth

and you see just what I mean

I said yeah yeah yeah

And If I'm acting like a king

well that's cause I'm a human being

and if I want too many things

don't you know that

I'm a human being

and if I've got to dream

baby baby yeah

I'm a human being

and when it gets a bit obscene

(wooah) I'm a human being

and I've got to go around

with my head hung down

just like a human being

we're all just human being

and I can hold my head so high

cause I'm a human, a first class human being

why won't you give me a little sip

why don't you try me on a drag of that cigarette

why don't you try to give me something

that I will never ever forget

but now don't you blow it all on a million dollar bet

because you're liable to lose it

on a bet that you can't get

I'm saying yeah yeah yeah

And If I'm acting like a king

well that's cause I'm a human being

I want too many things

don't you know that

I'm a human being

and if I've got to dream

I said well, I'm a human being

and when it gets a bit obscene

(wooah) I'm a human being

and I've got to go around

with my head hung down

just like a human being

we're all just human being

and I can hold my head so high

cause I'm a human, a first class human being

In fact I'm talking about the human race

they're trying to cover up the big disgrace

I said yeah yeah yeah,

oh C'mon C'mon C'mon

Well I may think that this whole scene is just a

too appalling for me

or I may be the type who's just a mad about

every little thing that I see

well I can't follow that with history

or make it just what I want it to be

while I'm blowing my change on a fan magazine

with all the Hollywood refugees, screaming

yeah yeah, oh yeah

And If I'm acting like a king

I said well, I'm a human being

and if I want too many things

don't you know that

I'm a human being

and if I've got to dream

baby baby, I'm a human being

and when it gets a bit obscene

(wooah) I'm a human being

and I've got to go around

with my head hung down

just like a human being

we're all just human being

and I can hold my head so high

cause I'm a human, a first class human being

I'm a human being

I'm a human being

I'm a human being

I'm a human being
