Oh babe

He loves you

But he just can't make it with you

And he just can't tell you it's true

How can he pass the test

When he just can't hardly move himself

Let alone prove himself the best

Oh babe

He wants you

But he just can't get it on as you planned

And i guess a girl just can't understand

How much a guy goes through

All she has to do is let herself

She doesn't have to get herself up

On cue

Like a performing seal

In a zoo

How was last night's

Performance babe?

Was it better than

The night before?

Are the old credentials

Any good any good any good any more

Or is the act beginning to bore you?

He can sing!

He can dance!

He can juggle!

He a regular one-man band

His costume's a little tattered

His label says

Made in japan

But he beats his battered drum

And he rattles his empty can

And he somehow gets

His flag to fly

Looka him

Looka him

He's a man!

Oh babe

Inside him

It's like there's a

Little kid in a jail

Crying denying he's fragile and frail

Hey looka him

He's a male

But it's the wail

Of the weary minstrel

It's the dance

Of the desperate clown

Singing

Don't put

Don't put me down

If i fail

Please babe

Don't put me down

If i fail
