I'M THE MAN
Joe Jackson

            E
Pretty soon now
                         A   E
Y'know I'm gonna make a comeback
              D             A           E
And like the birds and the bees in the trees
                  B    Am
It's a sure-fire smash
       E
I'll speak
                            A  E
To the masses throught the media
                  D         A     E
And if you got anything to say to me
                     B
You can say it with cash
C#m               A       C#m           A
'cause I got the trash and you got the cash
E                           B
so baby we should get along fine
C#m                   A            C#m                 A
so give me all your money 'cause I know you think I'm funny
B
Can't you hear me laughing
  D               A
Can't you see me smile

CHORUS
         E            A            D           A
I'm the man (I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man)
         E        A            D    A
I'm the man that gave you the hula-hoop
         E            A            D            A
I'm the man (I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man)
         E         A           D
I'm the man that gave you the yo-yo

Kung fu
That was one of my good ones
Well what's a few broken bones
When we all know it's good clean fun
Skateboards
I've almost made them respectable
You see I can't always get through to you
So I go for your son
I had a giant rubber shark and it really made a mark
Didja looka looka lookit alla blood
Give me all your money etc.

CHORUS

Right Now
I think I'm gonna plan a new trend
Because the line on the graph's getting low
And we can't have that
And you think you're immune
But I can sell you anything
Anything from a thin safety pin
To a pork pie hat
'Cause I got the trash etc.

CHORUS

This is the video of Joe Jackson's single I'm The Man, from around 1978. Apologies for the poor sound quality, and the washing machine noise in the background-but this video is too cool to miss!!
