Case, Neko - Man Lyrics






I'm a man
That's what you raised me to be
I'm not an identity crisis
This was planned

I'm a man
There's innocence in all mankind
It's what kind of animal I am
It's that simple, oh

I'm a man
And not just casually
I pull the sparks fulltime
The tree house cannot support me

I'm not the runt of the litter
The fat finger bullies were no match for me
So taste them in my teeth
I'm a man

I'm a man's man
Always been
Make no mistake
I've invested in
A woman's heart
It's the watermark
Of which I measure
Everything

I'm a man
That's what you raised me to be
I'm not your identity crisis
This was planned

I'm a man
You'll have to deal with me
My proxy is mine
You'll deal with me directly

And if I'm dipshit drunk on the pink perfume
I am the man in the fucking moon
'Cause you didn't know what a man was
Until I showed you

    FYI: Maybe I am not understanding this song.

    BUT, Men are screwed up and feminized BECAUSE they are raised by feminazis or women who don't tell the truth about who THEY are.

  4. G.... ....

    I never knew there was a music video for this song until today

  5. C.... S....

    Neko Case! I feel like if I write something I'll be pushed into a corner. I think Neko bears a "spiritual" resemblance to Siouxsie Sioux. So I won't write anything except this: from 1978 what do we STILL need to learn...?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lz2gMJqtIz4&list=RDlz2gMJqtIz4&start_radio=1&ab_channel=LiveFromAustinTX

  6. C.... K....

    get over it neko, try making more music instead of casting pre teens in your bad video.

  7. S.... G....

    Wow! This song is complete shit. I guess this was her pathetic attempt to cash in on the transgender fad. She's not a bad singer, but she needs better songs that this crap.

    S.... G....

    transgenderism = a severe mental disorder of a male with their God given XY-Chromosome (from womb-to-tomb) believing if they wish hard enough they can change to XX-Chromosome...and vice-versa.

  8. L.... V....

    oh brother

  9. J.... B....

    I love that Neko Case writes the most intense mature seen it all twice songs and then also produces what looks like the single off a Nikelodean TV movie

  10. S.... B....

    I seriously have to say that in my 10 years or so of loving Neko Case, just by proxy and because she is fabulously honest, always a fave, etc....a popular.....and yet, I have never seen this video? seriously? and less than 200 grand have? seriously? what a great song, great concept, she is my all timer list forever.I love you Neko case.

  11. E.... F....

    AND IF I’M DIPSHIT DRUNK ON PINK PERFUME THEN I’M THE MAN IN THE FUCKING MOON

  12. A.... K....

    This song reaches me as far as being a Tom girl and fought against sexist issues in both male dominated labor fields and the restaurant industry AND becoming the matriarch of my family after my grandfather passed. It is an anthem I can get behind. I will show them what being a real man means.

  13. w.... ....

    Neko case is my hero

  14. B.... ....

    Decent song.  Needs to do something with the hair.  Definitely needs to do something with the hair and clothes.  Maybe time for a makeover.  Yeah.  Time for a makeover.   Good music, though.

    B.... ....

    OMG fuck off

  15. o.... ....

    Is she trying to say she is a lesbian?

    o.... ....

    No. She's saying that she is a man.

    o.... ....

    She’s saying she’s a tomboy and if she wants to casually/jokingly call herself a man, she will... and that people shouldn’t take it literally.

  16. Z.... ....

    This video is freaking amazing.

  17. B.... B....

    Well that SUCKED!

  18. r.... ....

    Filmed at the Warner Bros lot?

  19. J.... R....

    The only problem with Niko is lack of good material..This song is case in point.

  20. L.... V....

    oh BOY.

  21. T.... P....

    I LOVE THIS SONG I IDENTIFY WITH IT AYYYY

  22. E.... D....

    I would say you suck, but you have talent, it's just I am so sick of the (men are horrible things we don't need and blah, blah, blah, blah). You are just a talented cliche. borderline lame/ pathetic. I have an idea the original no wait you're a woman and you can't. I would throw on a talk like go Donald Trump but even I don't like him almost as much as I don't like that pathetic lying power-hungry Hillary Clinton

    E.... D....

    Hey, it is refreshing to hear a person celebrate being a man, even if it's a woman. (This crazy world.)

  23. v.... ....

    I think if you're female, born before the Internet was a thing, and you were a tomboy or never particularly "girly" -- and raised to be self-reliant and independent instead of a dependent daddy's girl/princess, especially by a father/figure -- this could be you.

  24. L.... ....

    @ everyone whose asking what the message is: TRANSGENDER PEOPLE EXIST lmfao

    L.... ....

    Nope, wrong. It’s saying “I’m just a tomboy.” Completely flies in the face of the current Millenial obsession with gender identity. Neko explained it herself to Rolling Stone.

  25. J.... T....

    good song. about daddy issues.

    J.... T....

    Sounds more like Mommy issues to me.

  26. 5.... ....

    Heard this this morning on sirius radio, "outlaw country", not sure what the message is?? kinda like it though..

  27. P.... L....

    kinda weird video, nice song tho.

  28. S.... F....

    I love this song.

  29. B.... C....

    Indie ? Seems more like Punk fusion Pop !

  30. K.... D....

    Did anyone else come here from the book " never always sometimes"??

    K.... D....

    Kylie Dolezal I do !!! ❤

  31. E.... S....

    i normally dont like stuff like this but its great..plus im kinda high so idk..cooltho

  32. B.... ....

    I totally want that outfit.

    The drivers in my town act like you're not even there, at the crosswalks.

  33. J.... S....

    Nice muddy, indistinguishable guitar parts. Killer.

  34. S.... ....

    I sexually identify as this song.

  35. z.... ....

    I'm trans and I don't know if it was intentional in its writing that this song reflect transness so well, but oh my god this song is perfectly about a trans man

    z.... ....

    It’s saying 100% the opposite of that. It’s about Neko being a tomboy because she grew up in the 70s/80s when people let tomboys be tomboys without there being a crisis of gender identity or dysphoria. She’s saying only Americans are obsessed with gender, she says animals don’t give a shit. You can read her explanation of it in Rolling Stone. All respect to you and your situation though.

  36. c.... h....

    This should be the official trans-man anthem.

    c.... h....

    My best friend, a trans-man, just moved back home to England. Here's to you Jimmy Boy. Cheers!

    ....I miss you like fucking crazy already....

  37. P.... C....

    I bet the kid in the sunglasses and shorts is a girl. Wouldnt that be something!

  38. N.... ....

    I get the importance of this song for younger kids, but i dont like child dancers. They're so mechanical :(

  39. T.... B....

    I love this song & the video is really cool. Fanfuckingtastic!

  40. J.... L....

    Wow so many dislikes, people are cray as this song is great.

  41. J.... B....

    I'm the f#$#%$# in the moon, world.

  42. D.... A....

    What is this Sesame Street???!! dislike#265

  43. r.... ....

    Don't get me wrong, I love Neko! But this video.. Wtf lol it's fkn worse than Davie Bond!

  44. M.... P....

    You are amazing womanman in this song, Neco!

  45. M.... C....

    Incredible!!

  46. d.... ....

    Grey streaks are coming through. I kinda like it.

  47. T.... T....

    Neko is magic.

  48. D.... K....

    Ayant, de Tacoma à Vermont, contribué depuis 1997 à renouveler la scène country-folk US, en lui apportant énergie et sensualité, paroles intimes et punchlines rentre-dedans, et l'esprit frondeur d'une artiste qui, seule ou avec les New Pornographers, ne se sera jamais laissé marcher sur les pieds, Neko Richelle Case aka *Neko Case* publie l'anthologie (_Truckdriver, Gladiator, Mule_, 13/11) d'une carrière en tout point impeccable, qu'illumine le clip dansant de _Man_, plus bel hymne féministe de 2013.

  49. J.... S....

    Good song! What's with the stupid graphics all over Neko? I want more guitar solos and I want Neko to play them.

    J.... S....

    Yeah. That won't happen.

  50. R.... B....

    I feel lucky to have been able to have experienced Neko both just peripherally as well as live in concert in my lifetime. So deserving of much more publicity than she gets. Belongs w/ names like Patti Smith, Joan Baez, Lucinda Williams, Chrissie Hynde, Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell, Joan Jett & Debbie Harry.

    R.... B....

    Nobody on that list belongs with Patti!

    R.... B....

    Yeah they do.

  51. D.... D....

    She can do no wrong.

  52. R.... ....

    This song gets me.

  53. P.... ....

    Whoa, I just randomly looked for Neko Case stuff and she came out with a video today, radical!

  54. g.... ....

    she's my man ;-)

  55. O.... ....

    This is my gender.

  56. P.... H....

    omg Tyler!!

  57. E.... M....

    Awesome talent and frightfully attractive too :)

  58. T.... U....

    anti Chanel

  59. A.... G....

    Neko rocking as always. love.

  60. F.... C....

    This day more than ever, just after David Bowie's death, I needed this. Thank you, Neko. I love you.

  61. C.... J....

    Man, that was just awesome!

  62. J.... H....

    You are the f*#cking man Necko!

    J.... H....

    +John Hasseler Neko!

    J.... H....

    +John Hasseler dayı nabıyon dayı sen burda

    J.... H....

    She is 100% the F*cking MAN. <3

  63. J.... ....

    I often wonder why music videos are really videos with soundtracks. What you hear has little to do with what you see. Not so here! (hear?).
    This is performance art for me. Love it!

  64. H.... B....

    Love your music Neko!

  65. g.... ....

    Is that where they filmed Soylent Green?

  66. E.... W....

    So good! Thanks Neko.
