I'm the man of a thousand faces,
G Am Am F G Am
a little piece of me in every part I take.
Am F
I hold the tape for a thousand races,
G Am Am F G Am
a different point of view in every speech I make.
Am F G Am
Cut me a piece of my devided soul.
Am F G Am
Cry me a river, call it rock'n roll.
Am F G Am
Give me an attitude and watch me make it lie.
Am F G
Pass me a microphone, I need to testify.
C F
Will I speak to machines with the voice of humanity,
C F
speak to the wise with the voice of insanity,

speak to the present in the past and the future tense,
G
I'll speak to a slave with the voice of obedience.

I stole a fire but it burned up much too soon.

See something once y'know it's gonna come around again.
