I can take her anywhere,
Do whatever comes naturally to you,
You know she just don't care
'cause I'm always where I need to be
Yeah, and I always thought I would end up
With you, eventually
Do dodo do do do do...
Now I see her again,
I ask to be her hummingbird,
Whisper words in her ear,
Oh now you know I just don't care,
'cause I'm always where I,
Where I need to be
I-i-i always, always thought...
I would end up with you eventually!
I'm a man, I'm a man on the scene,
I'm a man, and I can be so obscene
Because I always think that I know how to be,
But I always thought that I would end up with you, eventually,
I'm a man, I'm a man on the scene,
I'm a man, and I can be so obscene.

In The Kooks' song "Always Where I Need to Be," the singer observes a woman who doesn't know who she is and can be taken anywhere. He tells her to do whatever comes naturally, but she just doesn't care. The singer then claims that he always thought he would end up with her eventually and that he is always where he needs to be.
The song captures a feeling that is both whimsical and poignant. The singer longs for a connection with the woman, but he seems to accept that it may never happen. He sees her as something of a wild spirit who is both untouchable and desirable. In the chorus, he repeats the phrase "always where I need to be," which suggests that he may be content with his current situation, even if he isn't with the woman he desires.
The line "I'm a man, I'm a man, I'm a man on the scene" seems to speak to the singer's self-confidence and perhaps his sense of entitlement. He believes that he knows how to be and assumes that he will end up with the woman he desires. Despite this, there's a vulnerability to the song that suggests that the singer is trying to make sense of a confusing world.
