The Doors - I'm A Man Lyrics

I was a young boy
I was just about five
I had a thing in my pocket
I kept alive

Now I'm a man
I'm past twenty one
You know baby
We have a lot of fun

Yeah, I'm a man
No boy, listen here
What I'm sayin'

I know
What's going down
All you people
Shut those discos down

Well, I'm a man
And so are these other guys
I got three men with me
And they know where it's at

Got some young studs
And we're nothing but love
Everyday end everyone
We're grown up
We're taking it on

All you people try holdin' on
Come with us
We'll take over the world
We're gonna own it
Make it like we want it

You got to feel it in your hand
You got to understand
You got to come along
I'm telling you to grow up fast

I'm telling you to grow up now
I'm telling ya, you ain't no children
I'm telling ya, you're not little girls
I'm telling ya, you're not little boys

You're men
Don't you understand?
You're women
Don't you understand?

You men and women
Get together, hold your hands
We're gonna take it over

With a girl by your side
And a woman has her man
There's nothing they can't stop

They own it, you own it
How do you want it to be?
Do you like it the way it is?

You want to be something?
You want them to be good?
Want them to love?

You want all the things
When I get high he tells me that
I think I'm gonna love

I want to touch you everyone
I want to touch you down there
I want to know you

I want to feel you
I want to feed you
I want you to know me
I want you to feel me

And we're all right here
What are we gonna do with it?
We're gonna
Are we gonna be something
Or are we gonna let it fall apart?

Are we gonna let them take it?
Or are we gonna take it?
Are we gonna take it?

And make it something great, you know
And make it something beautiful
And make it what we want
And make it something we need

So you realize
So you realize, so you feel
So you know the deal
So you, so you feel the groove
So you don't stop

I'm telling you, you're gods
You people are gods
You're all gods here

We're all gods here
We own the universe
We own the stars

We own the sky
We own the world
We own it all

Come on, let's get it
Come on, let's get it
