Text Box: Man of the Moment

Man of the Moment

 

Gonna tell you a story, ‘bout a friend of mine, way back when

Known each other since we were nine or ten

Always there at the start, and right there till the bitter end

 

You know he was born on the wrong side of the town

His pappa was a fighter, was always putting him down

A born survivor, he was running when he hit the ground

 

CHORUS

           He’s the man of the moment, living for the here and now

           He’s the man of the moment, living for the here and now

           Always keep moving, one step ahead of the crowd

 

He’s dressed real good, silk suit and handmade shoes

He’ll take your woman, steal her away from you

Then he’ll leave her flat, break her heart in two

 

He’s a tough tough man, always looks out for himself

Likes to stand out, likes to party like no-one else

Makes the most out of every single card that he’s been dealt

 

CHORUS

 

SOLOS

 

Lives life by a chance, as if every second’s his last

Never holds on to money, and drives his car way too fast

Drinks good champagne and never travels second class

 

He’s gonna grab hold of life, squeeze it till it’s dry

Had a hard upbringing, with him it’s fight never fly

 

Had a hard upbringing, you know I never seen him cry

When he wakes up in the morning, he’s waving his past goodbye

 

CHORUS x 2
