Man About Town Lyrics

Mel Brooks Man About Town

[Frederick]
Now you're a creature,
a primitive soul,
you don't know your left from your right,
you're lost in the dark,
you need a spark,
to lead you into the light

I'll be that guide,
I'll be by your side,
I'll put you out of the mire,
you'll be the greatest creation of man
since the invention of fire!

You will walk
you will talk
ev'rybody witll gawk
at the Man About Town!

And I know
when you open that door,
you'll be cheered, never feared evermore!

Raise yor eyes to the skies,
there's no holding you down
You won't be a flash in the pan
You're the man...
The Man About Town!

Though you feel like a beast in a cage,
stick with me,
and you'll be
on the stage!

Throw your hat in the ring,
they might make you a king,
and you'll trade that hat for a crown,
You're the man,
You're the Man About Town!
