I'M A MAN
♪ Black Strobe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now, when I was a little boy
At the age of five
I had somethin' in my pocket
Keeps a lot of folks alive

Now I'm a man
Turnin' twenty one
You know, baby
We can have a lot of fun

I'm a man
I spell M-A-N
Woah, I'm a man

All you pretty women
Standin' in line
I can make a love to you, baby
In an hours time

I'm a man
I spell M-A-N
Woah, I'm a man

Goin' back down
To Kansas town
To bring back the second cousin
Little Johnny the Conqueroo

I'm a man
I spell M-A-N
Woah, I'm a man

The line I shoot
Will never miss
The way I make love to 'em
They can't resist

I'm a man
I spell M-A-N
Woah, I'm a man





Woah, I'm a man

Overall Meaning

The song "I'm a Man" by Black Strobe is a modern take on the blues classic originally by Bo Diddley. The lyrics describe a confident and seductive man who knows how to please women. He boasts about his skills, claiming that he can make love to any woman who stands in line within an hour's time. The singer also speaks about his childhood and a mysterious object he carries in his pocket that keeps people alive. He then declares that he is now a man at the age of twenty-one and is ready to have some fun. The chorus repeats, "I'm a man, I spell M-A-N," emphasizing the notion that he is confident in his manhood and prowess.


The lyrics of the song convey a sense of dominance and sexuality. The singer is confident in his abilities and is not afraid to show it. The line "I can make a love to you, baby, in an hour's time" suggests that he is so skilled that it won't take him long to please a woman. The chorus emphasizes his masculinity and sexual power by spelling out "M-A-N." Additionally, the reference to the object in his pocket that keeps people alive adds a mystical aspect to the song, hinting at the idea that the singer is not just a regular man but possibly a supernatural one.

@OutsiderNight Campaign was good, but that ending was pretty bad. Especially since we may never get a sequel.
