Century Man Lyrics | Mika

Century Man

Isn't it nice
To be the one who is applauded and adored
To have a regular conversation with the Lord
To be the keeper of the skies above
Yet I'm the only one who's never asked of love

I used to be a troll
I felt like an ugly doll
Running from place to place
Stuffin my big fat face
Going a thousand miles
In the same direction
I'm gonna touch that sky

I'm a century man
Just look at me
I'm a century man
Why can't you see
You could be so much better than you were before
You'll have the whole world come a knockin at your door
I'm a century man

Isn't it grand
To be the only one to listen to their pleas
To have them watchin as they're fallin on their knees
To be the keeper to the stars above
Yet I'm the only one who's never asked of love
Now take a look at me
And tell me what you will see
Since I'm a the sonic whore
Instead of the boy next door
Going a thousand miles in the same intention
I'm gonna touch that sky

I'm a century man
Just look at me
I'm a century man
Why can't you see
You could be so much better than you were before
You'll have the whole world come a knockin at your door
I'm a century man
