Human Being

Well, if you don't like it, go ahead Find yourself a saint, go ahead now Try to find a boy who's gonna Be what I ain't Now what you need is A plastic doll with a fresh coat of paint Who's gonna sit through the madness And always acts so quaint I said yeah, yeah, yeah Well, with your new friend You're really making a scene And I see you bouncin' around From machine to machine And you know they're never real They're never what they seem And you can try to generate some warmth And you see just what I mean, I said yeah, yeah Yeah And If I'm acting like a king Well, that's cause I'm a human being And if I want too many things Don't you know that I'm a human being And if I've got to dream Baby, baby, yeah, I'm a human being And when it gets a bit obscene (whoa!) I'm a human being And I've just gotta go around With my head hung down Just like a human being, oh no, human being I can hold my head so high Because I'm a human, a riff-raff human being Why won't you give me a little sip Why don't you try me on a drag of that cigarette Why don't you try to give me something That I will never ever forget But now don't you blow it all On a million dollar bet Because you're liable to lose it On the best lovin' you've had yet I'm beggin, yeah-yeah-yeah Oh yeah, and If I'm acting like a king Well, that's 'cause I'm a human being I want too many things Don't you know that I'm a human being And if I've got to dream I said well, I'm a human being And when it gets a bit obscene (whoa-woo!) I'm a human being And I've just gotta go around With my head hung down Just like a human, says, oh no, human being I can hold my head so high 'Cause I'm a human, a riff-raff human being In fact I'm talkin' 'bout the human race You're trying to cover up the big disgrace I said yeah-yeah-yeah, wow! C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon! Said yeah-yeah, oh yeah Well, I may think that this whole scene Is just a too appalling for me Or I may be the type who's just a mad about Every little thing that I see But I can color that with history Or make it just what I want it to be While I'm blowing my change on the fan magazines With all the Hollywood refugees Screaming, "Yeah-yeah-yeah, oh yeah" And If I'm acting like a king I said, "Well, I'm a human being" And if I want too many things Don't you know, well, I'm a human being And I've got to dream, baby baby, baby I'm a human being And when it gets a bit obscene, woo-woo-woo! I'm a human being I'm a human being I'm a human being I'm a human being I'm a human being
