the little man


by chuck leary




i saw a little man
he was nothing at all like me
who am going to be rich and famous
you just wait and see

he was waiting for a bus
it looked like it might rain
i knew i should not laugh
but i could not feel his pain

going home to his wife and children
or maybe his dog or cat
or maybe just watch a ball game
but i am not like that

i am different from other people
and am the child of fate
i smile at your little problems
because destiny awaits


you may think i am just like you
as i stand here in the street
but time will show the difference
victory, not defeat

maybe you should be nice to me
you would be the first
but i will make it worth your while
when i rule the universe
