John Farnham-Man of the Hour
The ice is melting in my glass
There's a storm out on the ocean
A picture in a golden frame lying cracked and broken
If you lined up all the losers and stood them in my shoes
They'd put me on a pedestal and crown me prince of fools
Cause even though you did me wrong,my heart denies the fact
If you give me half a chance,you'll know I'll take you back
If there's a fool born every minute
Then I'm the man of the hour
Seems I've been living a lie for so long now
If there's a spot light then I'm in it
Cause I haven't got the power
To know when love is over
I'm the man of the hour
There's a time for giving up on love
And a time to stay and fight
I would give anything to be with you tonight
God I must be twisted cause I know your just no good
If you asked me to find my eyes,then Girl you know I would
If there's a fool born every minute
Then I'm the man of the hour
Seems I've been living a lie for so long now
If there's a spot light then I'm in it
Cause I haven't got the power
To know when love is over
I'm the man of the hour
Only stabbin from my heart let it beat again
In my world of self-illusion only you can stop the pain
Even though you did me wrong,my heart denies the fact
If you give me half a chance,you'll know I'll take you back
If there's a fool born every minute
Then I'm the man of the hour
Seems I've been living a lie for so long now
If there's a spot light then I'm in it
Cause I haven't got the power
To know when love is over
I'm the man of the hour
There's a fool born every minute
There's a spot light then I'm in it
There's a fool born every minute
There's a spot light then I'm in it
There's a fool born every minute
There's a spot light then I'm in itAn extraordinary guy
Can never have an ordinary day,
He might live a long goodbye
But that is not for me to say
I dig his friends, I dig his shoes
But he is just a child with nothing to lose
But his mind
They are sleeping while they dream
And then they want to be adored
They who don't say what they mean
Will live and die by their own sword.
I dig their friends, I dig their shoes
But they are like a child with nothing to lose
In their minds, their minds.
But I'll have my way
In my own time
I'll have my say
My star will shine
Cos you see me I got my Magic Pie
Think of me yeah that was me I was that passer by
I've been and now I've gone.
There are but a thousand days preparing for a thousand years
Many minds to educate and people who have disappeared
D'you dig my friends? D'you dig my shoes?
I am like a child with nothing to lose but my mind
My mind
