Souperman (2011)

I am a man, and I am proud of it

I am a man, and you know I love it

I’m not a woman and I never will become one

Because my confidence / My Y-chromosome will not be gotten undone

Now this is not a sign of masculine frustration

I am in favor of social emancipation

But I can see no reason for the changin’

Of men to connotations and women to crustaceans 



No, no, no, no, this is the wrong way up / No, no, no, no, don’t want to drink this cup



I am opposed to sexual inequality

Male and female, each have their own qualities

It may not be fair only women can get pregnant, true

But I’m afraid soon men will be expected to

Take that last step, and men become women

And vice-versa, but who will be a-winning?

From pretenders we will become contenders

If we take all the genders, and put ‘em in a blender



No, no, no, no, it’s not about control / No, no, no, no,  we’ve lost a clear-cut role



R	We’ve put the soup into superman, 

	We’ve put a mask on masculinity

	And put the peon into champion

	They’ve pulled the hood onto motherhood

	Made a thing out of sexy little thing

	To put the men into dementia



I have a hope men will someday be men again

Instead of little boys trying to be mannequins

‘cause that is where I see the world is going

No one really knows what their role is in the whole thing

Yes I hope women will continue into power

But without pushing men into being cowards

But understand we will keep the glass ceiling

If only for the reason that we could take a peek in 



No, no, no, no, you keep it sexual / Know, know, know, know then we’ll keep it casual



R	We’ve put the soup into superman, 

	We’ve put a mask on masculinity

	And put the peon into champion

	They’ve pulled the hood onto motherhood

	Made a thing out of sexy little thing

	To put the men into dementia
