Lyrics
Man first (kiss ass last)
Treatin? me like a baby
Can?t you see I?m just a grown up man
Build me up and then put me down
Perfect pieces of you little plan
Push me in just to save me
From you own special quicksand brand
I do my best not to fight with you
But you do it any time you can
It doesn?t have to be hard
No, no, no, no, no
It doesn?t have to be hard
Though you?d like to think so
So baby, since you never really were my friend
I?m a man first; I?m a kiss ass last
You?ll never see my face again
Then I got my boss
Got me workin? overtime all the time
Come in early and stay out late
I?m sure that do him just fine
Somebody tell me the reason
He?s got me workin? on the weekend too
Come in early and stay out late
I?ve got better things to do
