Hear me, I sound like a Beatle I get cold feet when the pressure's on you can't see me, coz I'm lost like a needle In a haystack yeah I'm almost gone Like a mouse follows the flute Or like a mule who can't dispute I fall in line with you Mouse more than man yes I am You know I want to say no and just stick to my own plan Mouse more than man, yes I am Coz yet I go with the flow See me a a chameleon, a cheap shot I change my cast for anybody's best But I'm not free, I feel more like a robot That is programmed to please the rest So whatever you want I'll do Whenever you want me to, I will agree with you Mouse more than man yes I am You know I want to say no and just stick to my own plan Mouse more than man, yes I am Coz yet I go with the flow Yeah yeah yeah.... I hate myself when going yeah, yeah, yeah.... No more sound like a Beatle Those cold feet are for yesterday No more getting the needle I cannot care about what others say Mouse more than man yes I am You know I want to say no and just stick to my own plan Mouse more than man, yes I am Coz yet I go with the flow before the shit hits the fan yeah yeah yeah yeah.... this is my last time going yeah yeah yeah....
