The Man
KITCHEN - The Killers Lyrics

Crazy little man
You are acting irrationally

Haven't they told you?
People have warned you before

Don't you know?
Are you aware of your actions?

Don't you care?
Are you indifferent to the consequences of your actions?

That somehow, somewhere, somebody's gonna burn your ass
Your actions will have consequences, and you will eventually face the consequences

You shouldn't believe all those things you do
Your behavior is not rational or logical

You should be walking down a different avenue, you
You need to change your behavior to avoid negative consequences

Silly little fool, none of it matters
Stop worrying about things that don't matter

None of it did, none of it ever will
What you do doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things

Just keep walking on that straight line
Stay on the right path

Find your bum in trouble every day
If you don't change your behavior, you'll face consequences

Life's not a game, keep an honest score
Life is serious and you need to be accountable for your actions

The competition's outside the door
Other people are trying to succeed in life too

Maybe one day you'll find, you could have lost your mind
If you keep going down this path, you might lose your sanity

Due consolation prize for wasting all your time and when your back's against the wall
You'll regret wasting your time and not changing your behavior when you're in a difficult situation

Very few will see you fall
Not many people will sympathize with you when you face consequences

Well, somehow you're so manifique, you turn the other cheek
You have an admirable quality of forgiving others

You're like a one-way street, beautiful and incomplete
You have a distinct personality that is both attractive and lacking

And when you find you win the race
If you keep going down the right path, you'll be successful

Do you wonder how you stood the pace, yeah?
You'll be proud of yourself for persevering and succeeding

That's just the way you are
You have a unique personality that is both admirable and flawed

You wasted little man, trapped in a wasteland
You are stuck in a negative situation due to your poor choices

Chained like a dog, eating yourself
You are trapped in a negative spiral and can't get out

Build a dream that your heart can sell to
Create a realistic goal that you are passionate about

Normal life, small, it's yours is to look up to
Emulate simple, successful people in your life
