PHONECALL:
(This is one of the neighbors from down the street.
This record of this music has been goin' on all afternoon
and I'm sick and tired of it. If it doesn't stop I'm calling the police!)

You got me on the run, you got it your way
Now I'm feeling pretty good and I'm beginning to sweat
Your love is so fine, it's got me feelin' alright
Going out of my mind, I got to have you tonight

The girl's so deep inside, like blood in my veins
Never lets me hide, now I'm going insane
It makes me climb the walls, bite my nails to the bone
It's always by my side, it never leaves me alone

Chorus:

When it's time to get tough, I'm masculine (masculine, masculine)
When she wants to play rough, I'm masculine (masculine, masculine)
Masculine

I know that I'm a man from the spark in my soul
It can make me so hot, you got out of control
Grab her by the hair, drag her back to your cave
It's what makes a man a man, people always stay the same

(chorus)

I'm masculine

(Masculine, masculine)

(repeats)

Anytime, anyplace, anyway, in the heat of the night and in the dark of the day
Anytime, anyplace, anyway

When it's time to get tough, I'm masculine (masculine, masculine)
When she wants to make love, I'm masculine - what d'you say?
When she wants to make love, I'm masculine

When she wants to play rough, I'm masculine (masculine, masculine)
When she wants to make love, I'm masculine (masculine, masculine)
If you push me I'll shove, I'm masculine
When she wants to play rough, I'm masculine
When she wants to make love, I'm masculine...

(to fade)
