about

"I spell G-U-Y" I have no idea why we turned such a sensitive song into a psychedelic freak out. Yeah, right.

lyrics

I'm a Guy
© 1994 Mark Nelson

Gypsy woman told my mama on my birthin’ day,
"You got a boy child comin’ gonna be a CPA"
Well, I was born for success got a plastic spoon in my mouth.
Come on all you people, let me tell you what it's all about.

CH:
I'm a guy
I spell G--U--Y
Guy

I can go to work from nine to five.
I make enough money to keep nine or ten people alive.
I can go to the club I play about eighteen holes,
Impress the caddie with my self-control.

Bridge:

I can walk that walk with my cheeks pulled tight,
Walk in a bar and avoid a fight
Look in the paper and predict the rain
There's fifty million of us and were all about the same

Yes, I am a guy….
