Manchild Songtext
von Steven Page

There′s wisdom
In every little thing you say
And I'm wrong
And getter wronger every day
I′ll be true
You know I'll never break your heart
I hear you
Could you repeat the last line

Darling, you're talking to a man now
You′re talking to a man, now, child
Speak slowly, speak slowly

Sweetheart
what do you think I do all day
I make art
When inspiration blows my way
Oh, the shouting
I′m getting kinda used to that but
This doubting my intentions
Honey that just makes me sad


Darling, you're talking to a manchild
You′re talking to a manchild now
Speak slowly, speak slowly

You ask for conversation
You ask for understanding
Then you say you want a man
Look how hard I'm trying
I let you watch me crying
I′m just like you, but I'm a man

I know you
You think I′m just a lazy jerk
But I miss you
Babe when you're away at work.
And Genius
Can strike a man at any time
So I'm waiting
Let′s cut it with the heavy sighs.

Darling, you′re talking to a manchild
Darling, you're talking to a manchild now
Speak slowly, speak slowly
