You, Man? Human??? (feat. Nick Cave)

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Hey everybody, i'm doing alright

I'm driving around in the middle of the night on a silver cloud

You can touch me if you want, it's obligatory, it's allowed

C'mon get in, everybody climb in

Hey, get in 'cause all we do around here

Is win, win, win, win, swimming and winning

Swimming, swimming, swimming, swimming

The swimming pool smells of chlorine

The gardener humanizes the hedge with shears

The poolhouse is obscene, no one has used the pool in years

Climb in, climb in, you can touch me if you want

And you will win, win, win, you have nothing to lose

You've got everything to win, you got nothing to lose

You, man? human??? you, man? human???

You, man? human??? you, man? human???

You, man? human??? you, man? human???

You, man? human??? you, man? human???

I'll take you down to basin street, they got crow in their shoes

A motel in memphis, see the king of the blues

A south dakota trail among the buffalo and sioux

You can touch me if you want, c'mon get in

Win, win, win in my silver cloud

You can touch me if you want, it's statutory, it's allowed

I'd keep the windows rolled up if i was you

What, with all the buffalo and sioux

And the lock's all down in the middle of the night in my silver cloud

Think there's a swimming pool smells like bleach

The driver has dropped something down the back of his seat

No one has driven this car for years

You can touch me if you want but i've not been sheared

I'm not human, you, man? i'm not human, you, man?

I've not been a man for years, i ain't been human for years

But you can touch me if you can't, you can touch me if you can't

Can touch me if you can't 'cause i'm alright
