Absolute control, absolute power
I don't have any power
I need power, power, power, power, power
Power, power, absolute obedience to my every command

I want to be the man
(You're the man)
I want to be the man
(You're the man)

I want to be the man
(You're the man)
I've got to, got to, got to
Got to, got to, got to

Bodyguards, I'm gonna have bodyguards
When I walk into a club with my bodyguards
They'll say, 'Excuse me
That's Mr. Faust's table you're sitting at'

'You can't sit there, 'scuse me sir
That's Mr. Faust's chair your big *** is in'
You can't sit there, 'scuse me, mother***ker
Don't you understand, mother***ker?

(He's the man)
What?
(You're the man)
I am?
(Yes, you are)

I'm the man?
(You're the man)
(You're the man)
I'm the man
(You're the man)

Women will come, women will go
Big ***s, pretty little ***s
I just don't know
Goddamn it, I just don't know

Do I have your respect?
(Yes, you have it)
Do I have your admiration?
(You know you got it)

Do you get those good vibrations?
(You're the man, you're the man)
(Yes, we do, you're the man)
I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man

Money, power, control equals love
