Some Men

(album: Private Eyes - 1981)

Some Men call half way around the world if they've got a phone game to play
Then again some men call their mom every day
Old boys drink bad beer and throw the cans out in the street
Playboys sit and sip red wine, some drink malt whiskey neat

So if you can, you talk about Some Men
If you can, you can talk about Some Men
Baby if you can, you can talk about Some Men
If you can, you can talk about Some Men

Colonels collect animal heads and hang their guns up on the wall
Corn balls watch television then pull a gun out in the hall
Crew-cut rainbows hang on streets hoping they'll find a friend
Odd balls running fast enough hope that they won't find their end

So if you can, you can talk about Some Men
Baby if you can, you can talk about Some Men

Sleep all night work all day
Work all night sleep all day
Drink all night sick all day
Sick all night drink all day
Dream all night if you can
We ain't soldiers so don't Generalize
No categories because it takes all kinds
You can sleep all night you can work all day
You can trip all night peak all day
If you can, you can talk about Some Men
