John Farnham - Man Of the Hour Lyrics

The ice is melting in my glass, there's a storm out on the ocean
A picture in a golden frame lying cracked and broken
If you lined up all the losers and stood them in my shoes
They'd put me on a pedestal and crown me prince of foo-ools

'Cause even though you did me wrong, my heart denies the fact
If you give me half a chance you know I'd take you back

If there's a fool born every minute
Then I'm the ma-an of the hour
Seems I've been livin' a lie for so long now-ow
There's a spotlight and I'm in it
'Cause I haven't got the power
To know when love is over
I'm the ma-an of the hour (hooh-hooh-hoo-ooh)

There's a time for givin' up on love and a time to stay and fight
I would give anything to be with you tonight
God I must be twisted 'cause I know you're just no good
If you asked me to blind my eyes then girl you know I would

If there's a fool born every minute
Then I'm the man of the hour-our
Seems I've been livin' a lie for so long now
There's a spotlight and I'm in it
'Cause I haven't got the power
To know when love is over
I'm the ma-an of the hour

Pull this dagger from my hear-eart, let it beat again
In my world of self delusion only you can stop the pai-ain

Even though you did me wrong my heart denies the fa-act
If you give me one more chance you know I'd take you back

If there's a fool born every minute
Then I'm the man of the hour
Seems I've been livin' a lie for so long now
There's a spotlight and I'm in it
'Cause I haven't got the power
To know when love is over
I'm the ma-an of the hour

A fool born every minute (hooh-hooh-hoo-ooh)-acapo
