"I'll Make A Man Out Of You" lyrics

"I'll Make A Man Out Of You"
(originally from "Mulan" soundtrack)

Let's get down to business
To defeat the Huns
Did they send me daughters
When I asked for sons?

You're the saddest bunch I ever met
But you can bet before we're through
Mister, I'll make a man out of you

Tranquil as a forest
But on fire within
Once you find your center
You are sure to win

You're a spineless, pale, pathetic lot
And you haven't got a clue
Somehow I'll make a man out of you

I'm never gonna catch my breath
Say goodbye to those who knew me
And boy was I a fool in school for cutting gym?

This guy's got 'em scared to death
Hope he doesn't see right through me
Now I really wish that I knew how to swim

(Be a man) you must be swift as a coursing river
(Be a man) with all the force of a great typhoon
(Be a man) with all the strength of a raging fire
Mysterious as the dark side of the moon

Time is racing toward us
'Til the Huns arrive
Heed my every order
And you might survive

You're unsuited for the rage of war
So pack up, go home, you're through
How could I make a man out of you?

(Be a man) you must be swift as a coursing river
(Be a man) with all the force of a great typhoon
(Be a man) with all the strength of a raging fire
Mysterious as the dark side of the moon

(Be a man) you must be swift as a coursing river
(Be a man) with all the force of a great typhoon
(Be a man) with all the strength of a raging fire
Mysterious as the dark side of the moon
