Wanted Man
Written by Glen Burtnik

Well, I live inside a busy house that's not so far away
And every day my doorbell rings with someone in my face
I got a letter in the mailbox, message on the answering machine
Everybody wants to get a piece of me, oh, yeah
Cause I'm a wanted man, just a wanted man,
I'm a wanted man, I'm a wanted man.
Well, I fell out of bed with a big giant head, but I'm way behind the schedule.
I've got mountains to move, too much to lose, that's why I'm running like the Devil.
They're waiting for me every one, the Second Coming, the Seventh Son
The Highway trooper with his radar gun, oh, yeah..
Cause I'm a wanted man, I'm a wanted man,
Just a wanted man, baby, I'm a wanted man.
I'm just wanted, well, I'm a wanted man. Oh, yeah.
Well, my old lady walked out on me, she took everything I had.
So I got myself a brand new lover, and this one ain't so bad.
She wants to cook me breakfast, she says she'll make my bed.
She wants to have a baby of mine, oh, yeah.
But I'm a wanted man, yes, I am, just a wanted man.
Just a wanted man, baby, I'm a wanted man.
Just a wanted man.
I don't know if I can take, baby.
How'm I supposed to fake it baby?
Don't know that I can make it, if I could only shake it, baby,
Yeah, if I could figure it out!
I'm a wanted man, just a wanted man.
Just a wanted man, I'm a wanted man.
I'm a wanted man, just a wanted man.
Baby, I'm a wanted man.
