A Man Needs a Woman or a Man to Be a Man

Song	A Man Needs a Woman or a Man to Be a Man
Artist	Bill Callahan
Album	Woke On A Whaleheart

	作词 : Callahan
	When you leave, I go into our room
	And lay me down on birds of paradise
	It's pretty womanly in here!
	Roses noting every move
	Nothing goes on except what should
	A vast legacy of good
	And I don't know if I can uphold it on my own
	I don't know if I can uphold it on my own
	I don't know if I'm to be trusted
	In our room
	Alone
	A man needs a woman or a man
	To be a man
	A man needs a woman or a man
	To be a man
	The light is explicit
	Between nine and noon
	The light shows a life to things thought dead
	LIke oaken legs and fireworks beneath the bed
	Fireworks are wasted in the day
	I set 'em off anyway
	To pass the time 'til you return
	I Can't see a thing 'til you return
	Maybe a little smoke 'til you return
	With fireworks
	More fireworks!
	And you tell me to wait
	Just wait, wait
	Just wait
	A man needs a woman or a man
	To be a man
	A man needs a woman or a man
	To be a man
	And when it's good and dark
	The sky a wet black
	Like earth has turned
	You say OK
	Now is time, OK
	Like earth has turned
	Above us explode a golden lion dripping red
	A blue bear spitting white
	A spider of fire on a web of sparks
	A green dragon with spiralled eyes
	Fireworks light the way
	Fireworks light the way
	Before us lie many a night
	Before us lie fireworks in boxes
	But only in you
	Deep in you
	Only in you
	Deep in you
	Is the fire that lights them
	A man needs a woman or a man
	To be a man
	A man needs a woman or a man
	To be a man
