Only a Man

From "Jupiter the Balloon Horse"

I've never been one for conversation

But I had you speechless before I began

Predictable answer to temptation

You're only a man

Some girls are far too sentimental

They're never inclined to go and take what they can

Why should I be gentle

You're only a man

Only a man...

I'm not of the indiscreet persuasion
But gentlemen, I know what you're for.
I only uphold the grand equation
Nothing more

A girl of resourceful disposition

Can always improve the circumstances at hand

You'll never hear me request permission

You're only a man

Your smile belies your true potential

You're almost astute enough to see through my plan

But you lack one credential

You're only a man

Only a man...

I'm not of the indiscreet persuasion

But gentlemen, I know what you're for.
I only uphold the grand equation
Nothing more

I'm not of the indiscreet persuasion
But gentlemen, I know what you're for.
I only uphold the grand equation
Nothing more

Some girls are far too sentimental

They're never inclined to go and take what they can

Why should I be gentle

You're only a man

You are only a man

You're only a man
