Furtado, Nelly - Hey, Man Lyrics






Hey, man, don't look so scared.
You know I'm only testing you out.
Hey man, don't look so angry,
you're real close to figuring me out.

We are a part of a circle.
It's like a mobius strip,
and it goes round and round until it loses a link.
And there's a shadow in the sky and it looks like rain,
and shit is gonna fly once again.

Hey, man, we look at each other with ample eyes,
so why not some time to discover what's behind your eyes?
I've got so many questions that I want to ask you.
I am so tired of mirrors- pour me a glass of your wine!

And there's a shadow in the sky and it looks like rain,
and shit is gonna fly once again!
I've got a bunch of government cheques at my door.
Each morning I send them back but they only send me more.
I look at myself in the mirror - am I vital today?
Hey, man, I let my conscience get in the way!

And there's a shadow in the sky but it looks like rain,
and shit is gonna fly once again,
and I don't mean to rain on your parade,
but pathos has got me once again...

And I don't want ambivalence
No I don't want ambivalence no more,
No I don't want ambivalence
No I don't want ambivalence no more,

I said I don't want ambivalence
No I don't want ambivalence no more, no more
I said I don't want ambivalence
No I don't want ambivalence no more, no more

  35. d.... s....

    FIRST ALBUM TOUCH MY HEART, THIS IS WHAT I CALL : (MUSIC) , THANK YOU NELLY

  36. M.... E....

    This song gets more and more relevant each year.

    M.... E....

    marcos ebersol omg! That is so true. This was one of my first albums I bought as a kid and was just enraptured with the lyrics. Truly a masterpiece. Her lyrics just hit me like I don't know what it means but as I got older I got to understand them more. I appreciate anyone liking this song. It's so under the radar.

  37. L.... ....

    Nelly from this time sounds so 90ish early 2000ish as fuck! You couldn't mistake it if you didn't know about the year of this album release.

  38. R.... R....

    This album is still fresh!

  39. s.... 9....

    10 jaar
    kan je zeggen da ik nie heb geprobeerd
    verbaasd ......... da je da hebt durven alleen al
    joçngetjes toch je karakter je mentaliteit heel jullie wezen zint me niks
    de wereld is beter zonder jullie af ma geen prob
    oorlog

  40. Q.... C....

    Sooooo good.

  41. L.... M....

    Phenomenal, epic song.   The violin and guitar killed it.

    L.... M....

    Nope. She wrote it on guitar. You can tell. It moves the song along. It adds her soul and harmonic texture.

  42. I.... C....

    Un disco que me impactó bastante, cuando tenía 18 años.  Recuerdo que tanto me gustaba su música, que hasta me vestía, maquillaba y peinaba igual que Nelly Furtado. Ella fue una de mis más grandes influencias

    I.... C....

    Carolina Hoz de Vila Guzmán Y de Dua lipa también! ! Ella canta precioso , se perdió! !

    I.... C....

    Sí es cierto..y desde ése álbum sigo siendo un fan y enamorado tb.saludos

  43. f.... r....

  48. l.... c....

    i know man i hate stereotypical retarded sexists

  49. l.... c....

    the instrumental is like kids playing in a park or someone drinking water .its gorgeous

  50. l.... c....

  51. p.... ....

    her best album.

  52. L.... C....

    there's only 3 artists from which I like ALL songs. Nelly Furtado is one of them!

    L.... C....

    My top 3 favorite music artists are Nelly Furtado, DMX, and Garth Brooks!

  53. G.... V....

    Her songs are really touching and its very live..

  54. d.... ....

    I've got fuckin big collection of black/death/grind metal CDs, but I bought that because this is masterpiece!

  55. I.... R....

    brilliant hooks in this one

  56. E.... ....

    @ceruleanblue777 It's about time. Been waiting for a follow up to her original sound for a while now. I still play my original cd of Whoa in the car sometimes...but if I hear her shit on the radio, no pun intended, I change the channel.

  57. c.... ....

    I heard this song again on CBC radio while driving yesterday. I had forgotten how good it is. Her singing and the arrangement sound very Jeff Buckley-ish on this track. Her new album is coming out this summer. She is quoted as saying it will be most similar to "Whoa Nelly".

  58. 0.... ....

    First CD I personally downloaded and burned!

  59. A.... V....

    come back nelly :( i miss u

  60. e.... ....

    This song sounds like somebody pouring a drink

  61. J.... E....

    a song that I like!!

  62. Y.... ....

    @TrillianS8 I like both Nellys!

    She would be boring if she stayed the same all the time. Her Spanish CD was great, too.

  63. T.... ....

    I miss bohemian Nelly Furtado, the girl who was a like a bird instead of a man-eater.

    T.... ....

    TrillianS8 then shut up and keep listening to bohemian Nelly.

  64. T.... ....

    why does ever guy that coments have to say "im straight"? it makes you all look like weak homophobes (homophobes are gay, usually). you're choice of music shouldnt dictate your sexuality . smh....awesome music is awesome music, And this is awesome.

    T.... ....

    Coz like no gay person ever says they are gay do they?

  65. S.... M....

    it remembers me so much things

  66. I.... ....

    For four minutes I remembered being a kid and listening to this. Thank you so much for putting this up.

  67. i.... ....

    @thatcobainchick Me, too! I saved my birthday money to buy this album specifically for this song.

  68. O.... ....

    man, what happen to nelly after folklore came out. She use to be herself instead of trying to sexy and following what big time producers that want her to be.

    O.... ....

    You only listen Promiscuous. Nothing wrong with her at all with that album Loose just listen other songs. She loves transition of the various styles.

  69. 0.... ....

    First music CD I ever burned

  70. c.... ....

    I LOVE YOU NELLY!!! MARRY ME!!!

  71. w.... ....

    And I don't want ambivalence no more!

  72. s.... ....

    This is the song of my childhood!

  73. V.... A....

    This song makes me think of my friend who passed away it's so sad I miss him so much he was only 13 i loved him and now he is gone :(

  74. S.... L....

    nelly, i love you! =)

  75. X.... ....

    Mooi nummer, zwaar ondergewaardeerd
