Übermensch

They say I'm a man with thirst for blood

In the eyes of the law I'm a stand up citizen

And I can see that this will be trouble

And you don't want me back around here again

I've been down on my luck

Could only roll snake eyes

So I will rise above you baby

oh, yes I will rise

They say I'm a man that drinks too much

But in the grand scheme of things that's the best of me

You take me for everything that I've got

And you keep coming back to attack the rest of me

I've been down on my luck

Could only roll snake eyes

So I will rise above you baby

Like the lord of the flies

I should've shortened the rope

And told them to throw away the key

And I will rise above you baby

Oh yes, I will rise

I will rise

They say I'm a man that lost my way

But I never had a direction or a sign

And I could've just laid down and died

But I keep on going with my whiskey, beer and wine

I've been down on my luck

Could only roll snake eyes

So I will rise above you baby

Like the lord of the flies

I should've shortened the rope

And told them to throw away the key

And I will rise above you baby

Oh yes, I will rise

I will rise

Hard road wouldn't want it any other

All told, I don't wanna be a wage slave

Can't you see I'm doing the best that I can

Be strong and carry yourself like a man
