Look in the mirror
I am The Man
Mrs. Miller says
I am The Man
Ask the birds singin'
I am The Man
Everyone is a fan
A little walk through the neighborhood
People nod 'cause it's understood
Mr. Henry comes out to stand
A wave and shout-out
To The Man
Ask the birds singin'
I am The Man
By popular demand
The little skinhead with the tattooed face
Shows me a moment of style and grace
The old hippie with the tie-dye headband
Flashes a peace sign to The Man
Ask the birds singin'
I am The Man
Well, I do what I can
The angry redneck in his pickup truck
Tips his hat and gives the thumbs-up
The New Age guy with the yoga mat
Blesses me with a pat on the back
The longhaired indie rock kid in a band
Looks through his hair and shakes my hand
The old homeless guy who smells like pee
Stops talking nonsense and says "Morning, E"
Ask the birds singin'
I am The Man
It's all part of the plan
The thug rapper with the gold and chains
Puts in his grill and says "Good day"
The politician going door to door
Says "No vote means more to me than yours"
Ask the birds singin'
I am The Man
You know I'd win if I ran
The lyrics THE MAN of EELS is also present in the album Tomorrow morning (2010)
Gli Eels sono un gruppo rock alternativo formatosi nel 1995 dal musicista e cantautore Mark Oliver Everett (conosciuto anche come Man Called E, Mr. E o semplicemente E; figlio del famoso fisico Hugh Everett III). Everett ha fondato gli Eels con il batterista Butch Norton e il bassista Tommy Walter (conosciuto anche con lo pseudonimo Abandoned Pools) quando la sua carriera solista ebbe un rallentamento. Il gruppo ha rapidamente raggiunto la fama con l'uscita del loro primo album *Beautiful Freak* nel 1996, quando una traccia dell'album, "Beloved Monster", è stata utilizzata nel film *Shrek*. Tuttavia, il loro secondo album, *Electro-Shock Blues*, è considerato il capolavoro degli Eels. Scritto durante un periodo di grande tragedia personale per Everett (la sua sorella si suicidò e sua madre aveva un cancro ai polmoni terminale), l'album esplora temi di dolore, perdita e speranza con una profondità emotiva rara. Gli Eels hanno pubblicato sei album in studio, l'ultimo dei quali è stato *Blinking Lights and Other Revelations* del 2005. Questo album è un viaggio personale nell'spiritualità e nella sanità mentale di Everett, ed è stato accolta dalla critica ma non ha avuto successo commerciale. Alcuni dei brani più rappresentativi degli Eels includono "Mr. E's Beautiful Blues", "Novocaine for the Soul", "Souljacker Part II" e "Climbing to the Moon".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
