    LYRICS FOR WHOLE SONG:
  •  
    I am a man as a man I've been told
    Bacon is brought to the house in this mold
  • Born of your bellies I yearn for the cord
    Years I have groveled repentance ignored
     
  • And I have been blamed
    And I have repented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
  •  
    I am man who has grown from a son
    Been crucified by enrag-ed women
  • I am son who was raised by such men
    I'm often reminded of the fools I'm among
     
  • And I have been shamed
    And I have relented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
  • And I have been shamed
    And I have repented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
  •  
    We don't fare well with endless reprimands
    And we don't do well with a life served as a sentence
  • And this won't work well if you're hell bent on your offense
    'Cause I am a man who understands your reticence
     
  • I am a man who still does what he can
    To dispel our archaic reputation
    I am a man who has heard all he can
  • 'Cause I don't fare well with endless punishment
     
    'Cause I have been blamed
  • And I have repented
    I'm working my way toward our union mended
    And we have been blamed and we have repented
  • I'm working my way toward our union mended
     
    We don't fare well with endless reprimands
  • And we don't do well with a life served as a sentence
    And this won't work well if you're hell bent on your offense
    'Cause I am a man who understands your reticence
