A man alone is just trying to hold his own

A man alone reduced to holding his own

All this new-found freedom is so outta-sight

Got a hot date with a baked potato tonight

And you may not want to see it

But you had better believe it

This is my one man show

Ah, this is my one man show

Ah, this is my one man show

Though it ain't very funny

It's on an extended run, yeah

Oh, this is my one man show

Well, it's the same performance playing out night after night

Night after night after night

So take a seat and baby I will turn down the lights

I will turn down the light

The curtain is raised and the audience is in for a shock

It's a holocaust of chrome, black leather and a tissue box

And I am so glad you showed up

Just in time for Men & Motors

Oh, this is my man show

Yeah

Ah, this is my one man show

Ah, this is my one man show

Though it ain't very funny

It's on an extended run, yeah

Oh, this is my one man show

Yeah, this is my one man show

Yeah, this is my one man show

Yeah, this is my one man show

Oh, this is my one man show

Yeah, this is my one man show

Oh, this is my one man show

Yeah, this is my one man...

And if you still treat your girl like you do -

well, it may be coming to a town near you

Oh, this is my one man show

Oh, this is my one man show

Yeah, this is my one man show
