Human Being

Uno dos tres
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
Now what you need is
A plastic doll with a fresh coat of paint
Who's gonna sit through the madness
And always acts 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 lover you had yet
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
Oh yeah
Well I may think that this whole scene
Is too appalling for me
Or I may be the type who is just mad about
Everything that I see
Well 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
Say 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
