Verse 1:
E G D E
All my days, I live with my disgrace
G D E
I'm afraid to show my face
G D C
Or at least take off my underwear...
see i was born, like a half-way neutered pet
I don't have a matching set
It's a part of me that, just ain't there
please don't stare...
Chorus 1:
well I'm a gamblin man without two dice
I'm like uncle ben with only one grain of rice
oh to have two testes would be so nice
D C E
But im half a man...
yeah im half a man...
Verse 2:
Wanna die, and all just call it quits
I can't find a cup that fits
and at baseball games, i feel so dumb
when i hear, ball one..
Oh my god, how could you have been so cruel
To give me one family jewel
And the one that's there must.. feel so sad..
He's a lonely nad
Chorus 2:
Well I'm a marathon runner with just one leg
I'm a fallopian tube with just one egg
Oh I want another teste do I have to beg.. or be
Half a man...
yeah im half a man...
End Verse/chorus: (same chords as chorus)
Well I'm a tweedle dee with no tweedle dum
and I'm a siskel and Ebert with just one thumb..
and I'm a yo ho ho, with no bottle of rum.. I'm just
Half a man..
yeah I'm, half a man..
