I'll Make A Man Out Of You
Donny Osmond and Chorus Lyrics

Let's get down to business, to defeat the Huns
We need to put aside our differences and focus on defeating the enemy.

Did they send me daughters, when I asked for sons?
I expected the strongest and bravest warriors, but it seems we have been given the weaker ones.

You're the saddest bunch I ever met
You seem weak, unconfident, and unprepared for the task at hand.

But you can bet before we're through, Mister, I'll make a man out of you
I will train and prepare you until you are strong, brave, and ready for battle.

Tranquil as a forest but on fire within
You need to be calm and focused on the outside, but determined and passionate on the inside.

Once you find your center, you are sure to win
Once you find your inner strength and confidence, victory will be within reach.

You're a spineless, pale, pathetic lot
You lack bravery, strength, and determination.

And you haven't got a clue
You are unprepared and unaware of what it takes to win this battle.

Somehow I'll make a man out of you
I am determined to train and prepare you until you are strong and brave enough to fight and win.

I'm never gonna catch my breath
I have a lot of work to do and do not have time to rest.

Say goodbye to those who knew me
I am leaving behind my old self and embracing a new identity as a warrior.

Boy, was I a fool in school for cutting gym
I regret not taking fitness seriously in the past.

This guy's got 'em scared to death, Hope he doesn't see right through me
I am afraid of my own weaknesses and fear that my enemies will discover them.

Now I really wish that I knew how to swim
I wish I had more skills and abilities to help me in battle.

Time is racing toward us 'til the Huns arrive
We need to work quickly and efficiently because time is running out before the enemy arrives.

Heed my every order and you might survive
I have a plan to help us win, but it will only work if you listen and follow my commands.

You're unsuited for the rage of war
You do not seem to have the skills and abilities necessary to survive in battle.

So pack up, go home, you're through
If you are not willing to train and prepare, then you should leave and not participate in the battle.

How could I make a man out of you?
If you are not willing to put in the effort and become a stronger, braver person, then there is nothing I can do to help you.

Be a man, We must be swift as the coursing river
To win this battle, we need to act quickly and with determination, like a fast-flowing river.

Be a man, With all the force of a great typhoon
We need to be powerful and forceful like a devastating typhoon to overcome our enemies.

Be a man, With all the strength of a raging fire
We need to have the strength and passion of a fierce fire to persevere and succeed.

Mysterious as the dark side of the moon
Our determination and fierceness should be a mystery to our enemies, keeping them on their toes and always guessing.
