The Man You’ll Never Be
Momus

[Verse 1]
        C                 G
I don't care where you've been
        Am               Em
I don't care what you've seen
F              C
Underneath the mountains
       Dm             G
On the scrotum of the sea
        C           G
I don't give a shit who you are
Am                   Em
How you crashed your favourite car
F           C
All I see before me
       Dm               G
Is the man you'll never be

[Verse 2]
           C         G
And though I love no other
       Am      Em
And no other's brother
    F                   C
And sometimes the technician
       Dm          G
In the art school lavatory
       C         G
Know I never betrayed you
          Am                         Em
Though -- technically -- they slayed you
F                 C
None of them were half the men
     Dm             G
That you will never be

[Verse 3]
         C              G
You look strange in the moonlight
  Am             Em
I wonder if I've done the right thing
   F      C      Dm                  G
To invite you to share your bed with me
         C            G
With the hole in your jacket
     Am          Em
The shoe in your pocket
F       C
One eye dangling from the socket
       Dm               G
Of the man you'll never be

[Verse 4]
               C              G
Well you have much to commend you
    Am                 Em
But who would befriend you
F        C
With the alcoholic swagger
         Dm              G
No-one's ever pleased to see
               C         G
You've got the eyes of a spider
    Am             Em
The handshake of a miser
F          C
I guess at least you're pleased you're not
    Dm               G
The man you'll never be

[Verse 5]
    C           G
And though many refuse you
          Am                  Em
Hide from you and try to lose you
F            C
Some run you over
Dm              G
Quite deliberately
           C        G
I will not shirk my duty
    Am         Em
For I love you truly
F               C
Not for who you are
            Dm               G
But for the man you'll never be

[Verse 6]
               C         G
You've got the lips of a chicken
    Am        Em
The tics of a victim
    F         C
The eyes of a liar
        Dm         G
And the belly of a whale
        C                G
I don't care what stupid things you've done
        Am              Em
How you stared into the sun
     F          C
When all I see, increasingly
       Dm               G
Is the man you'll never be

[Verse 7]
           C          G
And though I loved no other
     Am        Em
And no other's brother
        F              C
And the jackass in the record shop
    Dm             G
Who burns the fake CDs
       C          G
Know I never despised you
    Am        Em
But someone's undermined you
     F                   C
It's plain to see you're half the man
     Dm             G
That you will never be
