Verse 1:
Let's get down to business
To defeat the Huns
Did they send me daughters
When I asked for sons?
You're the saddest bunch I ever met
But you can bet before we're through
Mister, I'll make a man out of you
Verse 2:
Tranquil as a forest
But on fire within
Once you find your center
you are sure to win
You're a spineless, pale pathetic lot
And you haven't got a clue
Somehow I'll make a man out of you
Bridge:
I'm never gonna catch my breath
Say good-bye to those who knew me
Boy, was I a fool in school for cutting gym
This guy's got 'em scared to death
Hope he doesn't see right through me
Now I really wish that I knew how to swim
Chorus:
(Be a man) We must be swift as the coursing river
(Be a man) With all the force of a great typhoon
(Be a man) With all the strength of a raging fire
Mysterious as the dark side of the moon
Verse 3:
Time is racing toward us
till the Huns arrive
Heed my every order
and you might survive
You're unsuited for the rage of war
So pack up, go home you're through
How could I make a man out of you?
