First night in London I can't get to sleep Just told my dreams to some girl on the street Came cross the pond just to fight the machine And I still can't decide what the hell this all means Kick out my teeth And hold back the tears Then I could leave you here I'm just trying to be a man of the world Please god make me a man of the world Cause I don't know where I'm going I don't know where I'm from But I'll know it when I get there Yes I'll feel it when I'm done All summer long I brought rain to my kitchen A misty eyed lover with no one to miss me I thought you and I would go down in history Now I'm spilling my blood at the bars in this city I look at myself Like you used to do I wish I could tell the truth I'm just trying to be a man of the world Please god make me a man of the world Cause I don't know where I'm going I don't know where I'm from But I'll feel it when I get there Yes I'll be there when I'm done I look at myself Like you used to do I wish I could tell the truth I'm just trying to be a man of the world Please god make me a man of the world Of the world And I know it's not wrong
