1
Take your mind back - I don't know when
2
Sometime when it always seemed
3
To be just us and them
4
Girls that wore pink
5
And boys that wore blue
6
Boys that always grew up better men
7
Than me and you
8
What's a man now - what's a man mean
9
Is he rough or is he rugged
10
Is he cultural and clean
11
Now it's all change - it's got to change more
12
'Cause we think it's getting better
13
But nobody's really sure
14
And so it goes - go round again
15
But now and then we wonder who the real men are
16
See the nice boys - dancing in pairs
17
Golden earring golden tan
18
Blow-wave in the hair
19
Sure they're all straight - straight as a line
20
All the gays are macho
21
Can't you see their leather shine
22
You don't want to sound dumb - don't want to offend
23
So don't call me a faggot
24
Not unless you are a friend
25
Then if you're tall and handsome and strong
26
You can wear the uniform and I could play along
27
And so it goes - go round again
28
But now and then we wonder who the real men are
29
Time to get scared - time to change plan
30
Don't know how to treat a lady
31
Don't know how to be a man
32
Time to admit - what you call defeat
33
'Cause there's women running past you now
34
And you just drag your feet
35
Man makes a gun - man goes to war
36
Man can kill and man can drink
37
And man can take a whore
38
Kill all the blacks - kill all the reds
39
And if there's war between the sexes
40
Then there'll be no people left
41
And so it goes - go round again
42
But now and then we wonder who the real men are
