"The Music Man" lyrics

"The Music Man"

Back when it was all simple
Back when I wasn't afraid
Back when time was my best friend
And I would laugh at the grave

My daddy gave me a Walkman
My daddy gave me a tape
Before I knew any better
I put it in and pressed play

So take a look at me now
I'm quite the music man
Take a look at the crowd
All here for the music, man
We're all here for the music, man

The wheels began to turn
The magnets both took control
My world flipped upside down
Through cheap plastic headphones

Sometimes the little things
Cause the biggest scene
The tiny pebble in my shoe
A big bottom in blue jeans

So take a look at me now
I'm quite the music man
Take a look at the crowd
All here for the music, man
We're all here for the music, man
It's the music, man

So take a look at me now
I'm quite the music man
Take a look at the crowd
All here for the music
Take a look at me now
I'm quite the music man
Take a look at the crowd
All here for the music
We're all here for the music, man
It's the music, man
