The Greatest Man That Ever Lived (Variations On A Shaker Hymn) lyrics - Weezer

You try to play it cool like you just don't care
But soon I'll be playin' in your underwear
I'm like a mage with the magic spell
You come like a dog when I ring your bell
I got the money and I got the fame
You've got the hots to ride on my plane
You've given me all that I desire
Cuz down with me I'm takin' you higher

I'm baddest of the bad
I'm the best that you've ever had
I'm the tops, I'm the king
All the girls get up when I sing
I'm the meanest in the place
Step up, I'll mess with your face
I don't care where you are
Look up and follow this star

I, I'm gonna tear down the wall
I may not be here when you call
So best be givin' me your all, oo hoo

After the havoc that I'm gonna wreak
No more words will critics have to speak
I've got the answers
To the tangled knot
Sleep tight in your cot

Oh baby, I've been told that I'm going crazy
Oh baby, well I can't be held down
Oh baby, somehow I'm keepin' it steady
Oh baby, I'm tearin' up this town

Hey, this is what I like
Cut my heart with a modest spike
Hey, this is nothing new
I've got more than enough for you

I can take on anybody
I can do my thing
I don't want to hurt nobody
But a bee has got to sting
I'mma fix it if you mix it up, hoo hoo
Talk smack and I'm-a-gonna shut you up, hoo hoo

I am the greatest man that ever lived
I was born to give
I am the greatest man that ever lived
Oh radioactive

"Somebody said all the world's a stage and each of us is a player.
That's what I've been trying to tell you.
In act one, I was struggling to survive. Nobody wanted my action dead or alive.
In act two, I hit the big time and bodies be all up on my behind.
And I can't help myself cuz I was born to shine.
If you don't like it, you can shove it. But you don't like it, you love it.
So I'll be up here in a rage until they put the curtain down on the stage."

(I am the greatest man that ever lived)

I am the greatest man that ever lived
I was born to give and give and give
I am the greatest man that ever lived
radioac ...dioac ...dioac ...dioac
I am the greatest man that ever lived
I was born to give
Ho!
