(Yeah you know she would) Yeah you know she would Pre-Chorus 1 I'm manifesting love and fate I am a man and I confess I fake When I go hungry, I go nail and tooth When I go hungry, I go hungry, I go hungry for the truth I didn't write no book on love (with increasing intensity) I picked it up then put it down, it didn't get me off the top Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah verse 2 In my design I will be funny In my design she'll have a laugh that can't pretend In my design I will have money I'll grab the tab and I will tip sixty percent Pre-Chorus 2 I'm manifesting love and fate I am a man so I must be insane When I go hungry, I go through the bone When I go hungry, I go hungry, I will eat my little ones I thought I wrote the book on fun (with increasing intensity) Until I put it out to find I couldn't sell a single one Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Pre-Chorus 1 (palm mute) I'm manifesting love and fate (palm mute) I am a man and I confess I fake (soft and then loud) When I go hungry, I go nail and tooth When I go hungry, I go hungry, I go hungry for the truth I didn't write no book on love (one strum) I picked it up then put it down, it didn't get me off the top
