Little Man, Bitter Man
Lyrics
Step forward Little Hitler
Wave your flag and bang your drum
Make out your king of this pitiful hill
And I'll toss you another crumb
Little man, bitter man
Small kingdom creator
Would-be great dictator
Bitter twisted hater
Little man
Step back Little Napoleon
And survey all your land
And see for yourself the empty wealth
A king of nothing can command
Little man, bitter man
With poison in your soul
Hatred is your goal
It's swallowing you whole
Little man
Step aside Little Caesar
Your times are never changing
You'll continue to rot in your glorious rut
While my dreams are more far-ranging
Anger-fuelled and vitriolic, egocentric, histrionic
There is no cure, excuse or tonic for you
Little man, bitter man
Who do you think you are?
Your life is one big scar
You won't get very far
Little man
You could have ruled the world
You could have had it all
But no one ever made it big
By thinking so small
Your writing's on the wall, bitter man
Little man, bitter man
Who do you think you're kidding?
To think I'd do your bidding
It's my turn to be ridding myself of you
Little man
Step into my bright shoes
And you'll see just how I see you
You could only see one point of view
You could never really sing the blues
Little man, bitter man
You will carry, you will crave
Your bitterness to the grave
You've no soul left to save
Little man
