A Man Lyrics by Alanis Morissette

A Man Lyrics

    I am a man as a man I've been told
    Bacon is brought to the house in this mold
    Born of your bellies I yearn for the cord
    Years I have groveled repentance ignored

    And I have been blamed
    And I have repented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended

    I am man who has grown from a son
    Been crucified by enraged women
    I am son who was raised by such men
    I'm often reminded of the fools I'm among

    And I have been shamed
    And I have relented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
    And I have been shamed
    And I have repented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended

    we don't fare well with endless reprimands
    we don't do well with a life served as a sentence
    this won't work well if you're hell bent on your offence
    I am a man who understands your resistance

    I am a man who still does what he can
    to dispel our archaic reputation
    I am a man who has heard all he can
    cuz I don't fare well with endless punishment

    Cuz I have been blamed and I have repented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
    And we have been blamed and we have repented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
