Mad Man
Manuel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Living in the night
Danger becomes a delight
Every reason make me fight
Don't worry baby it's all right

You gonna find the way to cure this madness
No one's doctor can stop my rapture
Devil is conducting the overture
To the show of

Mad man
Baby I'm a mad man
If you wanna a crazy life
Stay by my side wow wow

Mad man
Baby I'm a mad man oh yeah
Never boring time
Trust in my mind
We will live out of line

Dancing in the night
I feel my body like a spark
You're afraid when I look around
Guess what I'm doing

Bark and voices I hear
I talk to ghosts without fear
I don't know the difference
Between dream and nightmare
But you've got a fascination
To the show of...

Mad man
Baby I'm a mad man
If you wanna a crazy life
Stay by my side wow wow

Mad man
Baby I'm a mad man oh yeah
Never boring time




Trust in my mind
We will live out of line

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Manuel's song "Mad Man" describe the artist's embrace of his own madness as a source of energy and excitement in his life. He revels in the danger and unpredictability of existence, and sees his alienation and disconnection from the world as a positive quality rather than a negative one.


The chorus of the song repeatedly asserts Manuel's identity as a "mad man," a designation he wears with pride. He invites others to join him in his unconventional lifestyle, promising that it will never be boring and encouraging them to trust in his "mind," which seems to be the source of his madness.


The final verse of the song introduces a note of ambiguity to the lyrics, as Manuel describes "bark and voices" that he hears and his ability to communicate with ghosts. His ability to distinguish between "dream and nightmare" is called into question, and the listener is left unsure whether Manuel's madness is a product of his own psyche or something more supernatural.
