Manchild Lyrics – Sia & Neneh Cherry

Manchild Lyrics by Sia & Neneh Cherry

Is it the pain of the drinking or
the Sunday sinking feeling?
The car never seems to work
When it’s late your girlfriend’s on a date

And the hero with her in your dream
in your sleep seemed like you
Turn around, ask yourself
Turn around, ask yourself

Manchild, will you ever win?
Manchild, look at the state you’re in
Could you go undercover and
sell your brand new lover?

(Could you) be someone else for a night?
Maybe someone else will love you
You’d sell your soul for a tacky song
like the one you hear on the radio

Turn around, ask yourself
Turn around, ask yourself
Manchild, will you ever win?
Manchild, look at the state you’re in

Manchild, he will make you cry
Manchild, manchild, manchild
From Monday down to Friday
You’re working on another man’s car

Or is it in the factory?
It doesn’t matter where you are
Just turn around and ask yourself,
is this communication?

Accentuate the positive and
give some illustration
See, manchild, you’re no one,
I’ll turn the microphone on

Control communication
when I’m kicking it and so on
To the point where
I need the air that I breathe

Into an audience that’s waiting
and ecstatic to receive
For the meantime another mean rhyme,
I keep on saying it

I know what the time is and the crowd
will keep on playing it
Through the speaker boxes.
Loud’s my diagnosis

‘Cause I believe in miracles and
words in steady doses
Enough R-E-S-P-E and C-T
Respect yourself, express,

no stress, the mike is easy
Just believe that all you need
is the air that you breathe
(Turn around and ask yourself)

Manchild, will you ever win?
Manchild, look at the state you’re in
Manchild, he will make you cry
Manchild, manchild, manchild

He’s the apple of your eye
Once bitten, twice shy,
why don’t you bite me again
Just take it in right and go tell your friend

Are you ready for the words?
I’ll turn the microphone on
A figure of speech to reach you
at the back and so on

The style I’m stimulating dance floors
Raise your body temperature
now and this demands for
Power in the amp, you know

loud’s my diagnosis
‘Cause I believe in miracles,
words in heavy doses

Manchild Lyrics English

Turn around, ask yourself
