Manchild

Chords and lyrics for Manchild by Neneh Cherry

Is it the pain of the drinking

or the suddenly sinking feeling

the car never seems to work

when its late your girlfriends on a date

and the hero with her in your dreams and your sleep

turn around and ask yourself

turn around and 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

turnaround and ask yourself

turnaround and ask yourself

manchild will you ever win

manchild look at the state you’re in

manchild, he won’t make you cry

manchild, manchild manchild

from Monday down to Friday

you’re working on a another man’s car

or is it in the factory, it doesn’t matter where you are

 
scratch a wound string with your pick ;) 
 
rap1 

manchild will you ever win

manchild look at the state you’re in

manchild, he won’t make you cry

manchild, manchild manchild he’s the apple of your life
