Lyrics

Uno due tre Well if you don't like it Go ahead, find yourself a saint Go ahead now, Try to find a boy Who's gonna be all the things I ain't What you need is A plastic doll with a fresh coat of paint Who's gonna sit through the madness And always act so quaint Oh yeah yeah yeah

With your new friends You're really making a scene I've seen you bouncing around From machine to machine

And you know They're never real They're never what they seem And you can try to generate some warmth And you'll see just what I mean Oh yeah yeah yeah

And if I'm acting like a king Well, that's 'cause I'm a human being I want too many things And that's 'cause I'm a human being And if I've got to dream I said well I'm a human being And if it gets to be obscene, yeah I'm a human being

And I just go around With my head hung down Just like a human being And all those human beings I can hold my head so high Just like a human, I'm a riff raff human being

Won't you give me a little sip Why don't you try me on a drag of that cigarette Why don't you try to give me something that I'll never ever forget

But now don't you blow it all On a million dollar bet Because you're liable to lose it On the best lovin' you've had yet 1 Oh yeah yeah yeah

And if I'm acting like a king Well that's 'cause I'm a human being And if I want too many things That's 'cause I'm a human being And if I've got to dream I said well I'm a human being And if it gets to be obscene, yeah I'm a human being

And I just go around With my head hung down Just like a human being And all those human beings I can hold my head so high Just like a human, I'm a riff raff human being

In fact I'm talking about the human race Trying to cover up the big disgrace Yeah yeah yeah

Yeah, yeah, oh yeah Well I may think that this whole scene is Too appalling for me Or I may be the type who is just a-mad about Everything that I see But I can't cover this with history Or make it just what I want it to be I'm blowing my change on the fan magazines With all the Hollywood refugees Said yeah yeah, oh yeah

And If I'm acting like a king That's 'cause I'm a human being And if I want too many things That's 'cause I'm a human being And if I've got to dream I said well, I'm a human being And if it gets to be obscene, yeah I'm a human being
