Self-Seeking Man Songtext
von Spooky Tooth

If there′s any justice in the world
Then there's something I gotta say
For all the fools who fend for themselves
For you it′s a dying day

I've been down all of my money and wealth
And I'm sitting right on square one
Trying to get my head together
Waiting for the sun

I tried so hard to win
Sometimes I gambled my own life
And anyone who crossed my path
Could never cross it twice

I came until there was nothing left
But their hearts turned on me
And now I′m out and out again
Deep in misery


I′ve been a self-seeking man
A self-seeking man
A self-seeking man
Who lived for himself
Wound up the fool
Got nothing for it
Ooh, nothing to show

Ooh, I've been down all of my money and wealth
And I′m sitting on square one
Trying to get my head together
Waiting for the sun

I've been a self-seeking man
A self-seeking man
A self-seeking man
Who lived for himself
Wound up the fool
Got nothing for it
Ooh, been a self-seeking man
A self-seeking man
A self-seeking man
Who lived for himself
Wound up the fool
Ooh, got nothing to show
Got nothing


Been a self-seeking man (No way of knowing)
A self-seeking man (No way of showing)
Ooh, self-seeking man
Been a self-seeking man (No way of knowing)
A self-seeking man (No way of showing)
Ooh, self-seeking man
Been a self-seeking man (No way of knowing)
A self-seeking man (No way of showing)
Ooh, self-seeking man
Been a self-seeking man (No way of knowing)
A self-seeking man (No way of showing)
Ooh, self-seeking man
