Pistol Pete Wearn & the Wildwood Flowers - What Kind of Man

What kind of man do you think you are
Do you look in the mirror and see some superstar
What kind of man treats folk like you do
When they show you their loyalty you leave them feeling used
Is it easy for a man like you to sleep at night
Do you just take want you want from life and think that that's alright

Oh tell me how, what made you say
I'm going to take something beautiful and burn it all away
Tell me how could you walk away
Once you'd made the bed of thorns in which others have to lay
Because you're the kind of man who's going through life on your own
There's a greater sense of decency in a tree or in a stone

What kind of man could have such gall
You've clearly got more faces than a clockmaker's back wall
Tell me how you feel no shame
There's people here that trusted you with not a penny to their name
And if you're jumped in an alley on a dark and lonely night
Well I promise that it won't be me but I might just feel alright

What kind of man has no remorse
Well a self-centred bullshit act I should have guessed of course
What kind of man would run and hide
Well the kind without a stomach or a backbone inside
You must know that your choices will come back to you someday
Yet somehow you stumble on and make them anyway

Well there's a place that's reserved for men like you in hell
So don't expect a handshake just consider this farewell
