Darjeeling Limited movie - Powerman lyrics

rate me

Song by The Kinks<br /><br>

I know a man, hes a powerful man<br>

Hes got the people in his power<br>

In the palm of his hand.<br>

He started at the bottom and he worked his way up<br>

Now hes never going to stop<br>

Until he reaches the top.<br>

Its the same old story, its the same old dream,<br>

Its power man, power man, and all that it can bring.<br>

If you want your money, you better stand in the line<br>

cos youll only end up picking up nickels and dimes.<br>

You call him names and he sits and grins<br>

cos everybody else is just a sucker to him.<br>

And hes got my money, but Ive got my faith<br>

And powerman, powerman, Ill never be your slave.<br>

Its the same old story, its the same old game<br>

Its power man, power man, driving me insane<br>

People tried to conquer the world napoleon and genghis khan<br>

Hitler tried and mussolini too<br>

Powerman dont need to fight, powerman dont need no guns<br>

Powerman got money on his side<br>

Well Im not rich and Im not free<br>

But Ive got my girl and she got me<br>

Hes got my money and my publishing rights<br>

But Ive got my girl and Im alright<br>

And she got me going, and she keeps me sane<br>

But powerman, powerman, got money on the brain<br>

Its the same old story its the same old game<br>

Powerman, powerman driving me insane<br>

<br>
